In May 2018 the Morgenland Festival Osnabrück guested in Almaty/Kazakhstan

The Morgenland All Star Band performed a highly acclaimed concert in the Philharmonic Hall, together with the local ensemble Khazar. Ibrahim Keivo, Michel Godard, Bodek Janke and Ulzhan Baibussynova played in the Museum of Traditional Music Instruments, and numerous jam sessions delighted audiences at various locations across the city. The guest appearance was a collaboration with the Kazakh event organizer JAZZIA.

Texts from Focus Kazakhstan and Interviews with Bodek Janke, the drummer of the All Star Band, and Michel Godard, serpent and tuba player with the All Star Band are available here.
