M: How?! He that, died?! It was very funny... S: Get used to it slowly
A: Spoils them. Yes? S: They pamper, yes
D: What was the question?
Dear friends, this year the premiere took place in Dimash's hometown of Aktobe - the first
Marat Aitimov competition was held. Such an event could not but interest us. We love and respect Marat
Olzhebaevich very much, who at one time voiced not only Dimash, but also his mother Svetlana. Therefore,
our editors at DK Media World decided to ask in more detail about this event the people who took
part in this competition, namely: Marat Aitimov, Svetlana Aitbayeva and Dina Niyazov.
Happy viewing!
A: A new competition in Aktobe, your name... Who gave you such a gift? M: It was 2019. Then
the culture of our region was led by Nurkhan Kadyrbaev. He said: “Why do we always start
honoring people when they are already at such an age, when they are already barely moving
or they are no longer alive. I,” he says, “propose to hold a competition named after Marat Aitimov.”
I somehow don’t take it very seriously to this proposal. I thought: you never know what was offered.
In the fall, when we returned from vacation, the director of our Philharmonic, Elubai Mukhamedovich, unexpectedly
for me, told me: the regional akimat accepted the offer. I've already started to panic a little...
And this year we decided to hold it. I think it went pretty well.
S: I am very grateful to the leadership of our region for organizing such a competition. With us, it’s customary
when a person doesn’t become then I just do it, and when he is, when he’s next to him, they don’t pay attention to him.
They stepped over this one, how to say? N: Stereotype? S: Yes, a stereotype. And they started. Well done my countrymen!
A: Still, you are a modest person. How did you feel as the head of such a festival?
M: I get used to such things for a very long time. When they start listing all my titles and regalia,
my nose and face are still starting to move. I'm still getting used to it, to be honest. O: understandable.
A: How did your colleagues react to the fact that Marat now has his own competition?
D: Everyone loves Marat. In fact, in life, to deserve some kind of big event is
for any person a very responsible first of all and very significant.
Everyone agreed and the competition was actually very interesting.
A: By status in this competition, were you the head of this jury or were you on an equal footing?
M: I was the chairman of the jury. The jury included Sveta Aitbayeva, Mayra Dauletbak, Zhuldyz
Nurkasymova, Allabergen Zhaksybaev. Today we are
visiting our loved one and he starts talking about my competition. And one of the guests says: "How?!!! Is he dead?!"
It was very funny. It seems to me that since the conversation went like this - did
I really die - I hope very much, I was going to live a long time, now I know for sure that I will live a long time. Oh yeah!
A: All the same, not everyone gets their own competition during their lifetime. What does it give you?
M: First of all, it is responsibility. Until recently, I was afraid of something, but thank
God everything turned out pretty smoothly, well.
The deserving ones won. The first competition, when the decision of the jury, the opinion of competitors and the audience
coincided completely. And I was very pleasantly surprised by the contestants when they sang my repertoire in the first
round. Naturally, these are young performers, artists. They have their own view, their own tastes, and
they performed some things in such a way that they acted in such a way that something started on their backs: a shiver from the performance, from the
interpretation of the songs. It was great of course. I think the contest was a success. God forbid that it
be traditional. A: That is, it is not planned as an annual competition, like Bakkyty Bala?
M: No. It won't be annual. I don't want it to be annual. O: Yeah. Why? M: Better once every two
years, but do it with dignity.
S: Indeed, it gave a good start to a lot of young singers. I myself sat on the jury,
was a member of the jury and listened to young performers. And once again I was convinced that our Aktobe
guys, who studied with Marat Olzhebaevich, are much stronger.
A: Svetlana, how do they differ? What was different about those you listened to? S: Firstly, they are distinguished
by a very correct vocal technique of singing. They have a clean intonation, they have very well-placed
positionally correct sounds and plus artistry, plus they hold themselves very well on stage,
they behave very worthily. It is immediately noticeable, immediately evident that they went through a good school.
This school is naturally Marat Olzhabayevich. Several of his students participated: this is
Azamat Bekbergenov, who received the Grand Prix, and Nurtas, this is our young, very young
Alisher Karabay, these are our girls from Aktobe. Well done my countrymen!
O: How many of your fox students were there? M: There were three. O: Three? They are certainly the best, as you always
say. The most presame. M: They really were, forgive me of course, the Grand Prix was won by
Azamat Bekbergenov. He flew out of my class back in 2011. A: But does that mean he has
something? M: He has a soul. O: This is important. M: Which is lacking for so many young
performers. He came out, made such a deep bow, and unexpectedly for me, when he bowed, he
kissed my hand. It was very touching. O: This is unusual. M: He does not stop saying:
“If I have achieved something in singing, it is only thanks to you. He says. It certainly costs a
lot
. "S: The contestants performed songs from the repertoire of Marat
Olzhebaevich. The second round we had the performance of songs by local composers.
Therefore, this is a peculiarity. But this is just a start. I think next year they will probably
change the concept of the competition. N: They are looking for themselves. S: Yes. They are looking for themselves. A: But in connection
with local composers. One of the participants sang Dimash's song "Umytylmas kun".
Was it on tour, as a local composer? S: Yes, yes, yes. As a local composer.O: And how did you feel about
this? All the same, it’s probably very difficult to do better than Dimash does. How did you like it?
S: I really supported this girl. Because the structure of "Umytylmas kun" is a very difficult
song. Not every singer will be able to perform because a wide range of azone: there, starting from low notes
to a soprano part - to high notes.
This is a very wide range, very difficult pronunciation, performance. Therefore,
the girl_ I think, from my point of view, she did it - But of course, many compared
her with Dimash But Dimash is a different case. But the girl also sang very well. I supported her.
I liked her. A: How do you feel about when the contestants take some songs
that probably mean something to you?
M: What am I waiting for? That this performance was not bad.
The main prize-winner sang my song "Rizamyn tagdyrga", literally translated "I am pleased with my
fate." This is a song, in general in my career, it gave me a lot of things. And when I saw on the list
that he was going to perform this song, of course, I was really looking forward to it, and I thought, and I was afraid: maybe there
will be nothing so unexpected? And it turned out just the opposite. Accompanied on the piano by our Dina.
He very cleverly considered the course of this song: there is such a thing. A: Did you yourself experience how
Dimash does it? Yes? He interprets and makes this song his own. M: Yes. And he uttered the third verse with a recitative,
and at that time our Dina vocalized the melody. O: Go crazy. M: It was very interesting.
D: In principle, I was not going to take part there. I shouldn't have been there at all. Azamat Bekbergenov called
me, this is the man who won the Grand Prix on the body of Marat Aitimov. He says: this is my
teacher and this is the first competition, I would like to, if it is my support for this competition, then I would
like to participate. And I vaguely remember the melody and he sang to me. And I really liked his vocals.
I began to try to play the instrument. I immediately recorded a video for him, as I see it. He said: I
like everything. What should I do with the second verse? I tell him: come on, you won’t invent anything,
let me play everything for you. You know, I rarely get goosebumps. But I just got
goosebumps here. I understand that everything inside me wakes up, my body responds to
his voice. I dissolve and I realize that by the end of the song my eyes are wet. He reads the third verse in verse.
To speak in verse very low, and I begin to sing along with vocals.
When our colleagues in the hall, who each supported their own candidate, saw that
they had taken out the piano and set up the microphone, they then had a question: What is this? For what?
Because usually accompanists don't come out to sing. But in short, we made everyone cry.
M: And it was funny to me, I saw the breathing apparatus I put in, how the diaphragm works ...
Some moments, some overtones in the voice, they always find my voice in my students. Of
course, I don’t notice it myself, but I really, really like it, honestly. Apparently I'm doing a good job.
in this direction. A: And children adopt. In general, your Aktobe is lucky. Because you now have two
competitions: on one you get a patron, as a senior, and the Bakkyty of the ball is, as it were, under the patronage of
your student (Dimash). M: Yes. O: So you have now caught up with your student? M: It turns out so.
A: Now he will have to come to your competition and give master classes. M: Yes! A: What you do with him.
A: Look, this is the second competition that appears in Aktobe. S: Not only two competitions, we have
many competitions. Aktobe is a good environment, a musical environment. On republic on the first places
on a rating. Our regional Aktobe Philharmonic holds another competition - named after
our local composer Beibit Oraluly, called "Elim Menin". N: But it turns out that you
are already establishing such a tradition of competitions and becoming the capital of music competitions.
S: Yes, you can say that. N: I wish you success! S: Thank you! And plus, every year we do
"Zhubanovskaya Spring" called. The founder of professional Kazakh music
Akhmet Zhubanov was born in Aktobe. We are very proud of this. A: But you carry these traditions further. S: Yes.
A: But life is good, right? M: Life is good. I always say that it is a sin for me to complain.
I am a very happy person, if only not to jinx it.
S: The Italian fan club, I am very grateful to them, they gave everyone who did not take a place, everyone their special prizes.
M: Dimash Italian Dears Club supports students from the class of Marat Aitimov for the second year in a row.
Our club believes that talents and their drive to succeed should be supported.
S: We constantly feel great support from Dears in all endeavors,
in all competitions. And at the Bakkyty ball. Fans help us a lot all the time: they make their own
special prizes. Already our contestants are getting used to quietly.
O: Are they pampered? S: They pamper, yes. Thank you, thank you all Dears thank you!
