New talents were revealed in the “Two Stars” contest.

“Nazarbayev Intellectual School of Physics and Mathematics in Semey” held a “Two Stars” song contest. The main goal of this event organized in the framework of the “100 songs” project for our school students, is to strengthen the relationship between students, parents and teachers, to develop their creative abilities and to identify new talents. This project, which is one of the educational directions of our school, is traditionally held for the third time.
“Mutual respect between a teacher and student is one of the most necessary requirements in education. Where there is a common understanding, there is a result. The “Two Stars” contest was one of the most successful projects that more deeply knitted together this connection. This year the number of participants has increased. The main reason is that if last year only the couples of students and teachers took part, then this year parents were also invited to perform on a stage. The parents, who supported our initiative, sang songs with their children. The participants performed the works of folk or domestic composers”, says an art-manager, organizer of the competition Ruslan Kassenov.
Seven couples who took part in the competition perfectly performed such famous songs as: “Aliya”, “Atameken”, “Ana turaly zhyr”, “Ainalaiyn”, “Yegіz-lebіz”, “Kөzіmnin karasy”, “Bir bala”. Some participants surprised the audience by preparing special stage performances for each song. The jury of the contest came from the outside: a choirmaster of the M.Tolebayev music college, conductor Olzhas Tezekbayev, an honored artist of the Republic of Tatarstan, a laureate of international competitions, a soloist of the A.Kashaubayev state philharmonic Kamila Nukenova, a laureate of international competitions, a senior teacher in “Musical Education” department Zhaniya Tynybayeva.
“Having heard about the contest, my daughter Nurai and I immediately decided to take part in it. My daughter and I are interested in music. But on the big stage we have performed for the first time. We did not publicly perform songs, only at our family events. Taking part in this competition, I noticed that my daughter became more self-confident. In general, such events contribute to the spiritual development of any person. And I think that every parent should support their children as much as possible”, says Gulbakyt Yermukanovna.
It was not easy for the jury to determine the winner of the competition. However, Asylbek Orazbekov, a Chemistry teacher, and Dilnaz Kapezova, a 10th grade student, received the top prize. The 1st place was taken by Assel Duysenbayeva – an English teacher, and a 10th grade student – Rauza Saylaukhanova. The second place was awarded to an English teacher – Karlygash Yesimbekova and Ansagan Serikovna, Gulbakhit Koylybayeva and Nurai Zhanatbekkyzy. The duet performers Bakhytbek Orynbayev and Aidana Zhalelova, Nartay Sovekhanuly and Ayan Nurgaliyev, Aklima Seksenbayeva and Aruzhan Mubarak were also in the list of the winners. The winners were awarded cups, certificates and souvenirs.
