Bolot Batyrkanov is a Kyrgyz maker of traditional musical instruments from Bishkek. Alongside temir-komuzes, he makes kerneys and other folk instruments.

Batyrkanov is among the makers whose work has helped return half-forgotten Kyrgyz instruments to contemporary performance. A distinct direction of his work is making pitch-matched temir-komuzes for ensemble playing. The catalogue preserves a diatonic set of seven instruments tuned to successive degrees of the diatonic scale.

Thank the maker or leave a message on the forum (1)
