Doolot Sydykov

Doolot Sydykov (born 1983), is a manaschi (a reciter of the Kyrgyz epic of Epic of Manas).

In November 2020, he recited the epic continuously in Ala-Too Square in Bishkek for 14 hours and 27 minutes.[1] In September 2021, he recited the epic for 111 hours over a five day period in Moscow.[2]

Transcriptions of three audiovisual recordings,[3] made at the American University of Central Asia, narrating the birth of the titular character, Manas, available online,[4] have been studied to reveal his in-performance composition methods.[5]
