First of all, the name of the musician is associated with the group "A-Studio". The composition of the team has undergone many changes, the participants appeared and disappeared, but not Baigali Serkebaev. His musical career is closely associated with this group, originally called "Arai". He was the founder and remains the permanent art director and producer, keyboardist, composer and author of most of the arrangements and songs of "A-Studio".
Biography
Baigali Serkebaev Ermekovich was born in the city of Alma-Ata, Kazakh SSR on June 27, 1958. His father is People's Artist of the USSR, the famous opera baritone Ermek. It was he who insisted that his son devote his life to music and continue his work, turn it into a family one.
As a schoolboy, a talented musician and producer in the future, one day wanted to leave music and seriously take up football, despite his father's desire to see him as a professional musician doing classical music. But the boy was more inclined to this choice by his hobby for foreign performers, especially he singled out the Beatles. It was this group that predetermined the direction and style of the future profession.
The main characteristic is stability. Calmness and equanimity, attentiveness and accuracy, knows perfectly well what to do.
Career
After graduating from the Almaty Conservatory named after. Kurmangazy in piano, the musician, together with the Kazakh singer Roza Rymbaeva, created the Arai group. It existed exactly until 1982, and the soloist Rosa invited him to create and lead a new group. The musician agreed, the team was recruited, but continued to work under the same name. Subsequently, it received the name "Alma-Ata-Studio", later being reduced to "A-Studio".
The group owes its rapid career growth to Alla Pugacheva. But their acquaintance did not take place immediately.
Once at the performance of Philip Kirkorov, the team handed him a recording with the song "Julia". The singer liked the track, and upon returning home he told the Prima Donna that they had given him the song. After listening to the recording, Alla Borisovna noted that such compositions are simply not given away.
Later, on his tour, Vladimir Presnyakov told the group that Pugacheva was waiting for them in Moscow. After meeting, fascinated by other compositions of the collective, she offered them a job. And after at the "Christmas Meetings", they are presented as "A-Studio". From that moment on, a rapid growth in popularity and offers to speak began.
Producing
Despite the fact that the group "A-Studio" is the main project in the life of a musician, he began to produce a Kazakh boy band, consisting of members of the first Kazakh "Star Factory". The young group Jigits established itself in its official line-up at the New Wave competition, where it managed to take 4th place.
In Russia, the boy band is not yet very popular. The producer explains this by the fact that the group is still at the preparatory stage, it takes time to work out the image and style, prepare the material.
On February 12, 2015, the official presentation of the group took place at the Emporio Cafe restaurant, co-owned by Baigali Serkebaev. The venue hosts the Emporio Music Fest, a competition that allows ascending performers and young musicians to gain attention and become a springboard for their careers.
