A creative evening dedicated to the anniversary of the famous choreographer Alila Alisheva was held in the Academy. Over the 40 years of her teaching activity, she managed to produce a great number of choreographers who later became leaders of famous creative groups, artists of the largest theaters in the country and teachers of professional universities. Understanding how important theoretical knowledge is for students, she did not forget about scientific activities. Under her leadership, 3 textbooks and 23 scientific articles were published.

Today, both colleagues and creative teams from all over Kazakhstan are gathered to congratulate Alisheva, the Honored Worker of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Bibigul Nussipzhanova, the Rector of the Kazakh National Academy of Choreography, was the first who expressed her gratitude for  contribution to the development of Kazakh choreography. In her speech, she noted the pedagogical work of Alila Alisheva, which lasted half  of  her life, as well as the human qualities that made it possible to achieve high results in the professional field.

And today, yesterday’s students of Alila Alisheva, and now the leaders of creative groups in Kazakhstan, in honor of their teacher’s anniversary, came to the event not only with warm words, but also with concert performances. A total of 8 numbers were performed on the Academy’s stage.
