Oriented on making people closer

"This carousel is for children like us," one of the members of the creative association headed by Oksana Bagramova and Alina Gosteva, whose young wards sparkled on the stage of the Turkmenistan Concert Hall on Sunday evening, sang in a slightly trembling with excitement, but with such a beautiful young voice.

An unprepared viewer at first does not understand what is happening: guys and girls, young and ambitious, dance and sing, joke and charge the hall with the most heterogeneous audience with positive emotions. There are young people and older people around — everything is saturated with a family atmosphere.

When you look at their numbers, you definitely want to say: "Look at this! What are they ...", and at the same time you are surprised not at how talented and bright they are, but at their future — they get used to the stage, already feel the picky gaze of the viewer, but still take their toll. And everyone is already singing along to them, enjoying the vocals of young talents.

Two girls, Oksana and Alina, managed to form a platform where young talents can show themselves to the general public: here they boldly face fear and take the bull by the horns. The concert "From heart to heart" united people of all ages with popular hits of different generations, and dances from TikTok and modern trends of choreographic art performed by boys and girls cannot but touch. This platform has united a variety of creative circles and collectives. The concert was so inclusive that at some point children of 3-4 years old came on stage, who showed an un-childishly complex dance.

"It was very exciting, the last time I performed at a concert was a year ago. Thanks to the organizers for trying to make it on the level. Take guys who just sing great, pick up songs that everyone knows and loves. I couldn't sing some of the songs, but I will demonstrate them in the future. I really liked the return of the hall," one of the musical performers, who performs under the pseudonym Alex Kuv, shares his emotions after the concert.

The head of the children's dance group PDT (Pop Dance Theater) Elena Amanmuradova said:

"We are young, we are not even a year old yet. We will have a year in March. We have very talented kids from 3 to infinity... We liked everything very much, we are satisfied with the atmosphere in the auditorium, the warm welcome. We are at the stadium "Kopetdag", sector 12, where we accept from 3 years old."

The organizer of the event Oksana Bagramova told:

"We are not a creative team, we are active guys who give young people the opportunity to show themselves. We collect young talents, it's easy to get to us: you just need to show yourself, your charisma, present yourself on stage.

It is important for us that the audience understands that we are releasing on stage not just a person who is afraid, but wants to perform, but someone who wants to show the world himself and his talent. Any guys who can show something "delicious" can easily contact us and perform as part of our events. If a person really shows the rudiments of skill and the quality of his performance, then we will give him the opportunity to perform.

Our goal is to give the stage to the performers, and the audience to the performers. We really want young people to be realized. This is not the first concert: the last event was called “A Midsummer Night's Dream". Now we are thinking about the details and nuances of work in the second half of the year and are trying to work efficiently: with minimal costs and high quality."

The organizer of the event , Alina Gosteva , said:

"It's quite difficult to think over each number, it's painstaking work. We used to work separately. After the introduction of restrictions related to the prevention of infectious diseases in Turkmenistan, we decided to join forces and are ready to work with other structural platforms now.

In addition to this activity, of course, we have a career, that is, the organization of these events is a purely disinterested matter. Therefore, our tandem is ready to attract more talented young people and those who are interested in providing them with a decent stage appearance. Especially now the frequency of concerts and the number of people willing to attend them is gradually increasing. Therefore, we are determined to work and discover unique nuggets for the Turkmen society — priceless talents. Thank you for your attention!".

Selim Gurbansakhedov, Marta Giris, pianist Stella Faromazova, Azim Meredov, Sona Durdyeva, Alex Kuv, Aylara Bayramova, Maryam Hojayeva, Murad Annageldiyev, Arslan Yagshinazarov, Grigory Ambartsumov, members of the D'akrille dance group and PDT showed themselves at the last concert.

Such concerts are the point from which the "Big Bang" of emerging stars begins. This is a unique platform where it is worth waiting for something new, unusual forms of youth art for hearing and sight. Therefore, if you want to catch future stars, then you should go to such concerts, where children and not only take their first steps in the field of art.
