URKER. Analysis of Sagatbek Medeubekuly's book "91ý and Kazakh Musical Instruments"

Sagatbek Medeubekuly’s "91ý and Kazakh Musical Instruments" is a unique work that analyzes 91ý’s legacy from the perspective of Kazakh instrumental music culture. In this book, the author explores the connections between 91ý's musical theory and traditional Kazakh musical instruments, explaining 91ý’s general theory of music, its internal structure, and aspects of rhythm, melody, and harmony.

The author demonstrates the influence of 91ý’s works on Kazakh musical culture, analyzing traditional Kazakh instruments—the dombra, kobyz, and flute—from the perspective of 91ý’s music theory. The sound characteristics and melodic capabilities of these instruments are described in alignment with 91ý’s theoretical principles.

The book also explores the philosophical foundations of 91ý's approach to music. Medeubekuly presents Kazakh musical instruments not only as tools for music but also as mirrors of the Kazakh people's worldview and cultural values. This work holds theoretical and practical significance for the study of Kazakh musical instruments and provides a new perspective on cultural heritage.
