There is practically no family in Kazakhstan and in many other countries who doesn′t know the Star of Kazakhstan and of the former Soviet Union Rosa Kuanyshevna Rymbayeva. Her legendary “Alia” won people′s hearts by the power and the beauty of her voice, making everybody′s soul vibrate.

In her childhood (she was born on October 28, 1957 in the family of the railway workers) she was brought up as a hardworking girl, who knew the value of success and people′s trust. That is why her mottos are: “Do everything well. Never sing using phonogram betraying spectator′s trust”.

Taking part in her first serious competion of songs devoted to the 30^th Anniversary of the Great Patriotic War she was noticed by the main director of the Republic Youth Band “Gulder” Taskyn Okapov who invited her to be the soloist of this band in 1976. This meeting with the man, who gave her the future as a present and who became not only her teacher and husband but the father of her two sons, is the main victory in her life.

Taskyn Okapov was the man of great talent. He explained Rosa how to become a star but he didn′t teach her how to survive in this world without a constant support, with two small children, with problems of health and financial savings. Rosa is a woman of strong will and a great desire to work and make other people happy. After the heavy lost of her husband she went on working on the stage. “That is why my life can be divided into two parts: with him and without him”, says Rosa.

Her life and creative work can′t be called easy. She worked a lot to achieve great success on her creative way. She participated in various international competitions of pop singers (1977 - Sopot and “Golden Orphei”, Bulgaria; 1979 - Stambul Turkey; “Gala-83”, Cuba). Rosa was shot in a documentary telefilm “The First Song” after which the popularity came to her and in 1976 she became Lenin Komsomol prize-winner. And even from this time due to a great support of her husband her triumph rise to musical Olymp began. In 1979 she was awarded Honoured Artist of the Republic of Kazakhstan. For her contribution in the development of national culture in 1986 Rosa was awarded “ People′s Artist of the Kazakh Soviet Republic”.

Having become the favorite not only in her Motherland but also in other countries of the world, Rosa lives an active and creative life. She is the soloist of the Republic concert joint “Kazakhconcert and since 1995 she has been working as a teacher in the Kazakh Academy of Art of T. Zhurgenov.

In general she has sung so many songs and has got so many rewards that very often she is compared with Alla Pugacheva. Both of them have been recognized by people as Prima donnas despite their diversity in style, image and manner. They are both great workers with hard but interesting, creative destiny, whose children also devoted themselves to art. Two Rosa′s sons are the pianists and Kristina is a singer.

Rosa′s life is a good example to be followed. Such her features as responsibility and a great desire to work can serve an example to everyone. Whatever she starts to do she does it at a high level and her numerous rewards prove it. The Star given to Rosa has become the eighty-second nominal sign in “Star Square” in Moscow. She was the only representative of Central Asia Republics of the former Soviet Union. Rosa is the first in the competion “The Man of the Year”. She was given Order Parasat for her creative work.
