Ulytau - Toccata and fuge (Live) HD

Kazakhstan is mainly known as part of the former Soviet Union, maybe as well as the biggest interior or also riparian state of the Aral Sea.
A few people associate Kazakhstan with a wild lowlands and rough mountain ranges and this is very the Kazakh band ULYTAU starts off!
Somewhere settled between traditional rhythms, classical elements and hard rocking sounds ULYTAU can easily be compared with artists like Apocalyptica, Korpklaani or In Extremo. Even though the 6 Kazakh abdicate singing to emphasize the connection between traditional sounds of the instrument Dombra, classics like the violin and the piano or the original instrumentation of guitar, bass and drums, ULYTAUs songs leave nothing to be desired.
The band around violist Alua Makanova, consisting of ERzan Alimbetov (Dombra), Maxim Kitschigin (guitar), Roman Adonin (piano), Rafael Arslanov (drums) and Kanagat Abdukarymov (bass), was founded in 2001 by Kydryrali Bolmanov. From the beginning on they wanted to connect the western and eastern cultural groups, based on the background of modern rock music and classical pieces of Bach, Vivaldi, Paganini, Dauletkerey, Tattimbet or Tlendiev.
ULYTAU would like to further the Kazakh tradition of playing the Domba with their music, as well as the modern elements.
For the first time the group caused a stir in October 2001, when they achieved the title as the world champion at the World Championship for performing arts and left 86 countries behind. Announced by the two American organisations IPA and WATME the world championship illustrates the opportunity to see and judge the best artist of respective countries.
Performances at two big festivals were broadcasted by MTV Russia and furthermore ULYTAU won the price for the best Kazakh band in 2001 and with the title Kuyu Aday, written by composer Kurmangazy, the golddisk 2001.
A year later ULYTAU got voted for the best Kazakh instrumental-band and received the national award of the youth association.
This is how the track continued upwards for the Kazakh and performances during the World Exhibition in London (2003), in Shanghai (2004) as well as further concerts amongst others in Warsaw and Aberdeen followed. Afterwards tours through Great Britain, Italy, Russia, Japan, Vietnam and many other countries in the world followed and releases on a few very important compilations for ethnic music followed.
Now the new album of the Kazakh ethnic-rockers will shortly be released on iMusic Records and will cause quite a stir in our latitudes!

[@sikimkocamanbirhiyar7029]

listen to me kazakh brothers. the people saying its turkish music is just dont know the term "Turkic". its because in our language, also in your language there is only one word "TURK" turkish people think that its also same in english. read orkhon script for once for gods sake and see what out father called us

[@TennessisET]

@rochelimit55555 cos Kazakhstan has historical and genetical relationship with other Turki nations such as Turkey, Azerbaycan, Turkmenistan, Ozbekistan, Kyrgyzstan. the same relationship exists between Russia, Ukraine etc. or between Italy, Spain, France and so on.

[@rochelimit55555]

@esraretin what is your motherland?

[@rochelimit55555]

@esraretin you want to create a new country?

[@aleztfu]

@PrensHaru I'm aware that Kazakhs are a Turkic ethnic group, but that does not mean they are Turkish (Turkish is the name designing the people of Turkey). Besides, you don't have to be so rude, okay :?? :)

[@RogelioPerea]

5 people have no appreciation for music.

[@plaguebacillus]

@deadleopan no son japones son kazakh

[@ArdaKaraduman]

Nurgaisha nin askerleriyiz !

[@aliya36333]

@rochelimit55555 It's all due to the same roots we share, the languages are similar, most of the region is islamic so religion plays a role too. I don't know about the Turkish so-called brothers but Kazakhs are not very willing to be a part of Turania as some Turkish or other people dream of (at least majority), we have more chances (the worst variant) to become part of China or Russia in the far future

[@rochelimit55555]

@Bellatris19 why do kazakhstan has turkish power?

[@aleztfu]

@PsychosiStyle Not Turkish, Kazakh

[@rochelimit55555]

@TennessisET the Dutch and German are brothers but both were never that nationalistic. So does the Nordic countries, they are literally brothers, but never say something like, VIKING POWER, WE ARE bROTHERS, SUPA!!!, and flag rising then chanting national anthem. I think eastern European are very nationalistic, sometimes too much, in case of the Balkans (they are southeastern technically)

[@moldir9138]

Ulytau is not turkish(((( It`s kazakh band ))) And in the middle it`s our kazakh national instrument DOMBYRA ))) Why u write that it is turkish ? why u write it `s turkish ) while ULYTAU does not have anything in comman with Turkey ( do not write the information which is not true

[@PrensHaru]

@aleztfu hahaha who are you ??? introduce yourself ??? because i'm talk only turks ..

[@bigmcntosh9418]

1 ivan 2 bek

[@ukessex]

Kazakhs are not Turkish, they are Turik. And Turkey is motherland for Turkish people, and Kazakhstan is their Fatherland

[@PrensHaru]

@PrensHaru ben bilirim tarihi gardaş.sanırım senin turkcen iyi degil ve yanlis anliyorsun.burada ingilizce konusmam !

[@rochelimit55555]

why do people of these areas enjoy using 'brothers'? lol

[@PrensHaru]

@aleztfu Kazakh is Turk ... You go learn.after write here you.okey ? :) read history...

[@ArhunBeyik]

@ntilimissov but it is the real belieff of Huns - our ancestors. All that Abrahamic religions, such as judaism, christianity, islam - not for Arian Huns, we are different race, we are not semithic people, that's why we can't obey semithic gods as allah or jehovah. Gok Tengri is Great Hun Arian God, not same with allah or jehovah

[@Oliver_Kruse]

1 person is not a musician!

[@elecktronvitass1909]

песня супер, но такое впечатление что на сцене под фанеру играют, или нет?

[@yonas221]

Elecktron Vitass они никогда не играют под фанеру и не имеют права. Под фанеру их можно и дома послушать
