Abay Ibrahim Qunanbayuli / Aбай Құнанбайұлы / Абай Кунанбаев (1845-1904, from Semey region)
- one of the greatest Kazakh philosophers, poets, composers, and ideologists. He represents the finest level of Kazakh advocacy for education and spiritual development :-) :-)
this song is titled “Kozimnin Karasi“ = “My most cherished one“ (literally: “the pupil of my eye“ - an expression used to show the ultimate care and love for someone), very popular among kazakhs.
Playing at Indiana Memorial Union; the day of my graduation (BS in public health) at Indiana University. Loud due to multiple events going on
