Concerto Piccolo for accordion and orchestra composed by Martin Lohse. The Astana Times Kazakhstan reporter, Aibarshyn Akhmetkali, featured an item on Kazakh accordion 2021 Coupe Mondiale winner, Olzhas Nurlanov this month as follows: “Kazakh accordionist Olzhas Nurlanov mesmerized the European audience with his profound performances during his September concerts in Bosnia and Herzegovina (a the 2023 Coupe Mondiale), Serbia and Germany, reported NF media. Nurlanov holds the 2021 world champion title among accordionists as the winner of the 74th Coupe Mondiale international competition. Nurlanov was invited to Bosnia and Herzegovina for a solo concert in Bijeljina and to perform with the President of the International Association of Accordionists Mirco Patarini and former Coupe Mondiale winners in Ugljevik, Kirill Rusinov, Alexander Selivanov and Grayson Masefield. Nurlanov’s remarkable artistry and technical prowess have enabled him to broaden the accordion’s repertoire, incorporating Kazakh traditional music such as Kurmangazy’s “Adai” and Nagim Mendygaliev’s “Poem-Legend of Dombra.” His program also featured classical pieces by Johann Sebastian Bach, Domenico Scarlatti, Modest Mussorgsky, Camille Saint-Saëns, and Robert Schumann. He also performed works by Vladislav Zolotaryov and Alexander Kholminov, both of whom composed original music for the accordion. Nurlanov’s skills also impressed Milan Tomic, a famous musician and the organizer of the annual accordion festival in Kragujevac, Serbia, who invited him to perform three concerts in the Serbian cities of Kragujevac, Valjevo, and Kraljevo. After Serbia, Nurlanov traveled to Italy to participate in one of the most prestigious international competitions for accordionists, the 48th edition of the PIF 2023Castelfidardo. This year, 20 finalists from around the world performed live for the judges, including two solo performances and one with an orchestra. Nurlanov won the second prize. While in Italy, Nurlanov was invited to the famed Beltuna factory and he concluded his tour with solo concerts in the German cities of Heppenheim and Langenzenn. “In 2024, Nurlanov plans to tour several countries, including Switzerland, Germany and Serbia. Additionally, he is in discussions for a potential tour in China.” |
