In the entire history of show business, singers from Kazakhstan extremely rarely gained popularity not only in the post-Soviet space, but also beyond its borders. Not yet a young talent appeared with a unique voice that made him talk about himself and his country around the world. This is a 23-year-old performer Dimash Kudaibergenov, whose biography has recently been interested in an increasing number of fans .
Biography
In May 1994, in the small city of Aktobe, Dinmuhammed Kanatuly Kudaibergenov was born. After 23 years, he will take on a more familiar name for hearing and pronunciation - Dimash. The boy grew up in a musical family with his mother, Svetlana Aitbaeva, singer of the Aktyubinsk Philharmonic, and his father, Kanat Aitbaev, head of the regional department of culture and, subsequently, producer of his son.
Children's years Dimasha Kudaibergenova
The biography of the future popular singer does not imply a happy carefree childhood. According to Dimash’s mother, the child should not have free time, so that he would not be left to his own devices. Therefore, her son had a rather tight schedule. From the age of five he attended a children's music studio, where he studied vocal and piano. At the same young age, Dimash first acted as a singer, and proved to be a carrier of outstanding vocal data. And a year later, the boy won the first prize of the national competition “Ainalayyn” for his talented playing the piano.
At the age of sixteen, the young singer became the winner of the song contest "Voiced Voices of Baikonur", and two years later he was waiting for the first prize at the festival "Zhas Kanat".
In parallel, Dimash perfected the art of academic singing at the College. A. Zhubanova, who graduated in 2014. Then there was the Kazakh National University of Arts and studies in the specialty "Variety Art".
New stage
The key to the creative biography of Dimash Kudaibergenov was his victory in the song contest "Slavic Bazaar" in 2015. Participation in this festival brought him recognition and love of the audience of the entire post-Soviet space.
In the competition program, the young man made three compositions:
- Kazakh folk song "Daididau";
- K. Meladze’s lyrical composition “Again a Blizzard”;
- by the song of the French artist Gregory Lemarchal SOS d'un terrien en détresse.
According to the results of three rounds, Dimash scored the maximum number of points (175 out of 180) and became the owner of a grand prix and a cash prize of $ 20 thousand. For a voice with a huge range and the ability to take the highest notes, he was nicknamed "Kazakhstan Vitas."
During the same period, the performer defended the singing honor of Kazakhstan in the framework of the international television festival ABU TV song, which was held in Istanbul.
In 2016, singer Dimash Kudaibergenov was awarded the state scholarship of the President of Kazakhstan Nursultan Nazarbayev.
International popularity
In the spring of 2017, young talent ventured to test their strength in the Chinese version of the South Korean show Singer 2017, where only professional performers compete. He easily conquered the first round and captivated the audience with the beauty and wide range of his voice.
At the contest, the singer performed two songs: SOS d'un terrien en detresse and "Opera No. 2", performed by the popular singer Vitas in China. The reaction to the speeches of Dimash Kudaibergenov was millions of views on Youtube. And in the competition, young talent took first place.
It is not surprising that soon Dimash receives the title of most popular singer in Asia.
In April of this year, he participated in the Chinese reality show I am a Singer-2017. Despite the second place taken by Dimash Kudaibergenov in China, the audience considered him the winner, despite the fact that the representative of the Celestial Empire won the first prize.
After participating in this project, the singer, as an honorary guest, was invited to the French state television channel France 2 to perform in the most famous cabaret show Lesannéesbonheur. The reaction to Dimash Kudaibergenov’s performances was amazing: the French audience applauded while standing. Perhaps we can talk about the beginning of the conquest of the European public.
Fans love
Despite the silence from the public about the details of the personal life of young talent, this does not interfere with the popularity of Dimash among women, but rather, on the contrary. For example, in China, Dimash Kudaibergenov, after arriving at the airport, saw a whole crowd of fans with flowers and gifts. As it turned out, they did not know what kind of flight the singer would fly, and therefore they met every plane. A scandalous moment arose due to the fact that Dimash performed "Opera No. 2", producer Vitas sued him, citing the lack of permission to perform this composition. Sergei Pudovkin, possibly fearing a decline in the popularity of his ward, intends to get a ban on the performance of any songs from Vitas’s repertoire.
For these attacks, Dimash himself asks not to compare him with a Russian performer because of the difference in musical style, language, voice and level of performance, although he admits that such a comparison is a sign of popularity for him.
Personal life
The biography of Dimash Kudaibergenov very little affects his life outside the stage. It is no secret that for the singer, grandparents mean a lot, taking an active part in his education. He also has siblings.
It is also known that the young man is not married, but according to social networks, he is in a relationship with Nursaule Aubakirova, a student at the faculty of directing at Astana University of the Arts, who once graduated from Dimash himself.
Prospects
Professional musicians and critics acknowledge that Kudaibergenov’s voice with a range of five octaves is unique. His teacher M. Aitimov claims that Dimash can sing both the upper bass and the flute.
High-quality performance of songs in four languages (Russian, English, Kazakh and Chinese) is one of the factors for the success of young talent in conquering international show business.
In the spring of 2017, Kazakh singer Dimash Kudaibergenov performed in a duet with French performer Lara Fabian at the EXPO-2017 exhibition, in June - his first solo album in Astana was held at the stadium with a capacity of 22 thousand people. It is possible that in the near future the capital of Russia will be full of posters: "Dimash Kudaibergenov - a concert in Moscow!"
