Dialogue of Cultures: Presentation of an International Educational Project of Three Conservatories

On June 24, 2025, an online presentation of a scientific and methodological manual created as part of international cooperation between three leading conservatories from Kazakhstan, Russia and Uzbekistan will take place. The project brought together experts from Almaty, Tashkent and Saratov to jointly comprehend and analyze modern piano works and national performing traditions.

This manual is a comprehensive work that combines scientific and methodological articles analyzing national compositions, musical notation and video recordings of performances of plays included in the project and integrated through QR codes. This multimedia format allows teachers and students not only to read, but also to hear, see and understand music more deeply, thereby creating a lively cultural dialogue.

Recognized teachers and researchers took part in the preparation of the methodological texts — from the Kazakh side: L. Akshpekova, G. Abdirakhman, M. Bulembayeva, R. Dyussembayeva, A. Zakirova, A. Kalibayeva, D. Tokmurziyeva; from the Uzbek side — D. Islyamova, F. Mukhamedova, N. Stetsenko; the Russian school was represented by I. Vinogradov, A. Demchenko, N. Korepina, T. Levashova, N. Novokreschenova, I. Polozova, M. Preobrazhenskiy.

The publication, created under the direction of D. Urazymbetov, analyzes piano works by composers from three countries — Adilzhan Tolykpayev, Akmal Safarov, Viktor Uspenskiy, Vladimir Korolevskiy, Vladimir Michelet, Gulzhan Uzenbayeva, Dilnoz Zakirova, Dilor Amanullayeva, Lyazzat Zhumanova, Mikhail Kheifets, Nagim Mendygaliyev, Rustam Abdullayev, Sergei Polozov, Taskyn Zharmukamet and Yuri Masin. They were performed by professional musicians from three conservatories, which makes the project particularly practice-oriented. Among them are L. Akshpekova, M. Bulembayeva, I. Vinogradov, R. Dyussembayeva, V. Igonin, V. Korolevskiy, F. Mukhamedova, M. Preobrazhenskiy, A. Safarov, N. Stetsenko, D. Tokmurziyeva, G. Uzenbayeva.

The international project "National Piano Schools" is not just a collection of materials, but also an up — to-date resource that reflects the development of piano art in the modern educational process and serves as a platform for intercultural exchange.

All interested specialists, students and music lovers are invited to the presentation, which will take place online on the Yandex Teleconference platform: https://telemost.yandex.ru/j/78559218480260
