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 a record 14 hours and 27 minutes. [1] In September 2021, he recited the epic for 111 hours over a five day period in Moscow. [2]
His earlier attempts to promote the epic included touring across Kyrgyzstan in 2012 performing with Talantaaly Bakchiev, [3] making audiovisual recordings of his performances depicting the funeral feast for Kokotoi Khan [4] and episodes from Semetey, [5] and performing with Solenye Oreshki, a jazz band. [6]
While popularising the epic, he has also spoken out against the commercialization of the epic (such as branding alcohol with the names of the epic's heroes). [7]
Transcriptions of three audiovisual recordings, [8] made at the American University of Central Asia, narrating the birth of the titular character, Manas, available online, [9] [10] have been studied to reveal his in-performance composition methods. [11]
In 2022, he left Kyrgyzstan owing to a political dispute regarding the Manas Ayyly (Museum).[ clarification needed] [12]
