The Embassy of the Kyrgyz Republic will host two concerts of the Folk Ethnographic Theater Ordo Sakhna. The event consists in a concert « Silk Road Nomad Music » follow by an Exhibition of Decorative applied art and Fashion show of the traditional costumes.
The folk ethnographic theatre «Ordo Sakhna» was created in 1999 and combined a group of professional musicians graduates of the conservatory and laureates of international and regional contests.
The aim of the theatre is to retain, develop, and popularise Kyrgyz folk heritage around the world. The originality of the Theater lies in the fact that the members perception of folklore is not pure enthusiasm, but a deep study of the spiritual culture of the Kyrgyz people. Meeting with the bearers of folk traditions, the artists of the Theater have managed to recreate the ancient dances BakshyBiy and ShyrdakBiy, which were forgotten until recently.
Ordo Sakhna has gathered an exclusive collection of old traditional melodies and dastans (small epos), which came to us through centuries of generations. Through careful searching and experiments, the musicians adapted the ancient heritage to modern society.
The artists have considered every aspect of the songs and dances: detailed recreations of traditional costumes, mannerisms of motion and symbolism of gestures. With the aid of these factors, they have succeeded in recreating a realistic and honest ethnographical picture of Kyrgyz culture.
