National Anthem of the Republic of Kazakhstan
The anthem is one of the main symbols of the state. The term "hymn" from the Greek word "gimneo" means "solemn song". The anthem is an important sound symbol, which is of fundamental importance for the effective social and political consolidation and ethno-cultural equality of the citizens of the country.
In the history of independent Kazakhstan, the national anthem of our country was approved twice – in 1992 and 2006.
In 1992, after the state sovereignty of the republic, a contest was announced for the music and text of the anthem of Kazakhstan. Following the results of the contest, it was decided to keep the musical version of the anthem of the Kazakh SSR. The authors of the first anthem of independent Kazakhstan were Mukan Tulebayev, Evgeny Brusilovsky and Latif Hamidi. The contest was also won by a team of authors, famous poets Muzafar Alimbayev, Kadyr Myrzaliyev, Tumanbai Moldagaliyev and Azhara Daribayeva.
In order to increase the popularity of the country's sound symbol, a new national anthem was adopted in 2006. Patriotic song "Menin Kazakhstanym" was chosen as its basis. The song was written by Shamshi Kaldayakov in 1956 in the words of Zhumeken Nazhimedenov. President of Kazakhstan Nursultan Nazarbayev has edited the original text of the musical composition to give the song a higher status of the national anthem and a more solemn performance. On January 6, 2006, the Parliament of Kazakhstan adopted amendments to the Decree "On state symbols" and approved the new national anthem of the country.
