The article examines the formation of piano performance and pedagogy in Kazakhstan within the context of the traditions of the Russian pianistic school. The historical stages in the development of Kazakhstan’s pianistic art are considered on the basis of an analysis of factual material; the origins and continuity of performing and teaching traditions within the Moscow piano-school lineage A. Goldenweiser - G. Ginzburg - G. Axelrod - G. Kadyrbekova are identified; and the conceptual methodological approaches that distinguish this school in relation to performance art and the professional training of future pianists are revealed. The creative biography of G. I. Kadyrbekova and her contribution to the development of Kazakhstani piano performance and to the national musical culture as a whole are presented. It is shown that the inherited traditions of the Goldenweiser school, refracted through the prism of the pianist’s individual characteristics (professional abilities, psychological qualities, and spiritual sphere), found continuation in her performing activity and in her educational practice in a new form. The article concludes that the stability of the national school is ensured by a combination of cultural continuity and the adoption of the high standards of Russian pedagogy.
