A. Buribayev gives concert in Berlin

The orchestra together with soloists as Mari-Elizabeth Hekker (violoncello, Germany) and Ivan Podiemov (oboe, Russia) pleased the audience with various program including Danse macabre, Night on the Bald Mountain, and e-moll concerts . It is necessary to note that thanks to the interesting repertoire, original interpretation and special culture of sounding the German symphonic orchestra of Berlin has obtained the world recognition during its sixty year existence. Alan Buribayev was born in 1979 to a family of musicians; his father is a cellist and conductor and his mother is a pianist. He graduated with honours from the Kazakh State Conservatory as both violinist and conductor, and continued his conducting studies at the University of Music, Vienna with Professor Uros Lajovic. His victory at the Lovro von Matacic Conducting Competition in Zagreb in 1999 brought him to international attention and this success led to invitations from several European orchestras. In 2001 he reached the final of the Malko Conducting Competition in Copenhagen in which, where no first prize was awarded, he was awarded a Special Prize, which recognised his 'outstanding talent and promise'. Alan Buribayev went on to win First Prize in the Antonio Pedrotti Competition in 2001. Successful work of band-master Alan Buribayev with the German Symphonic Orchestra of Berlin and soloists from the different countries has brought the contribution to cooperation development between masters of music.
