Ladies and gentlemen before we jump straight into the action tonight it’s important to note the following announcements:
There are toilets both on this floor at the back of the room as well as downstairs. Please note that no one is allowed to go upstairs. Smoking is strictly forbidden in the building. There are smoking facilities available outside. Failure to listen the rules will result in us deploying the police force aka the mentors.

There is a table with clean plates and cutlery on the table located at the back/front?
We advise you to stick around until the end (unlike some people – stares over at me) if you like to learn how to sweep a lady of her feet as we will be learning how to do the South African Sokkie and some Hungarian folk dancing.

S: Bopushev Stalbek Toktosunovich – komuz a national Kyrgyz instrument (3 min.) (a mic, a chair)
There is a saying that the inner world and character of any nation are reflected in its music. So, today there is a performance on a national musical instrument called komuz. It is made from wood and has only three strings. In the hands of a master, it sounds astonishing. Komuz has been used by Kyrgyz people since ancient times. In folk songs, momentous events, daily life of people, customs and traditions, and love songs are often reflected with the musical accompaniment of komuz.
Today, Stalbek Toktosunovich BOPUSHEV wants to perform one of the amazing compositions which is called Mash-Botoi by Atai Ogonbaev. The composition reflects the horse race during the traditional equestrian game of Kok-Boru. This game is also known as Kokpar in Kazakhstan and Hungary. This game shows the true character and spirit of nomadic people.
