Choir: Chorus of the Abay Kazakh National Opera and Ballet Theater
Overview

The Choir of the Abay Opera and Ballet Theatre is the pride of our creative team. It forms the foundation of large-scale, spectacular productions that grace the opera repertoires of any theater worldwide.

The choir boasts first-class vocalists. They are skilled in performing works across a wide range of genres, from classical opera to musicals and jazz.

Songs by Kazakh composers occupy a special place in the choir's repertoire. These works have been successfully performed by the choir not only on stages in Kazakhstan but also enjoyed by audiences abroad, earning genuine admiration. A significant part of this success lies in the high skill of the choir's performers. Our goal is to showcase the choir as a solo ensemble, introducing the public to its unknown facets and potential through a contemporary lens.

Through a unique, captivating show, we engage the audience in the onstage action. Positioning choral singing as an expression of national unity, harmony, and respect for native culture. After all, when voices merge into one, it is a powerful image of national cohesion and pride.
The uniqueness of the "Yapurai" project lies in its desire to combine Kazakh musical tradition with modern technology and scenography. For the first time in Kazakhstan, a program will be presented that includes national classical masterpieces and folk songs adapted for choral performance, preserving musical traditions while simultaneously giving them a new sound. This project will offer audiences a unique opportunity to experience familiar works in a refreshed form, incorporating contemporary trends in music and art.

Furthermore, the use of high-tech scenography combined with quotes from prominent figures such as Abai Kunanbayev, Shakarim Kudaiberdiev, Al-Farabi, and Mahmud al-Kashgari will highlight the beauty and depth of each number, creating a visually rich and emotionally charged performance. An innovative approach to combining musical and visual elements will allow audiences to experience a true harmony between the past and the future, as well as the unity of Kazakhstan's cultural and historical traditions.

We invite you to become part of this important cultural event, which preserves and enhances Kazakh musical traditions.
