The Turkmen composer himself conducted the orchestra, presenting to the public the "Choreographic Suite" of his compatriot Recep Allayarov.
The organizers dedicated the creative action to the 75th anniversary of the Honored Worker of the Republic of Kazakhstan, Honorary Citizen of Karaganda Dusen Kaseinov, who for many years (2008-2022) headed the International Organization of Turkic Culture (TURKSOY).
– The peculiarity of the festival "My friends are my wealth" is that all my close friends who sincerely respect our country and people perform in front of the audience, – said Dusen Kaseinov. – Wherever I am, whatever I do, Karaganda is always in my heart. I come here every year to meet my childhood friends, classmates, relatives. I hold festivals here out of great love for my fellow countrymen.
Warm words about the hero of the day were also said by his friends – musicians from other countries. In their opinion, Dusen Kaseinov is a man who erases geographical boundaries for art.
