The mixed choir is actively engaged in concert activities. Over its existence, the Conservatory choir has performed the most complex works of world and national classical music.
Over the years, the department has trained and graduated young conductors who work not only in Kyrgyzstan, but also in neighboring and far-abroad countries (Kazakhstan, Russia, Germany, Italy).
The Department of Conducting is of great importance for the development of the arts and culture of Kyrgyzstan, as it is the only institution in the country that trains high-level professional specialists — symphonic orchestra and choral artists, teachers, singers, performers, and promotes classical and folk music.
Thanks to training at the Conservatory, our students, both in teaching and performance, demonstrate their artistic skills, the ability to reveal the artistic image of the works they perform, the ability to teach beginner musicians, to instill a love for aesthetic beauty, music, and art.
