Description | Aitys is an improvised song and poetry competition of akyns, poet-singers accompanied by a dombra. This is a traditional form of Kazakh oral folklore that includes singsong reading of poetry. Akyns spontaneously compete with each other by minutely composing poems and mutually answering questions of societal concern. Deep philosophical reflections in a witty, bubbly manner often turn into a form of poetic ridicule and criticism. Akyns compete in their resourcefulness and originality. | ||
