Daulet Myktybaev (Kazakh: Дәулет Мыктыбаев, Russian: Даулет Мыктыбаев, 1904 - 1976) was a Kazakh kyl-kobyz player from the Korgaldzhy region of Tselinograd oblast in Kazakhstan. He was the descendant of the legendary Yklas and inherited the art of playing kyl-kobyz from Yklas's pupil, Abiken Tokhtamysyly, while learning the best küys for kobyz from his uncle Tusupbek, the son of Yklas. Myktybaev started his creative activity at the Karaganda Regional Radio Committee in 1933. His first serious public performance was held at the 1st Republican Meeting of Folk Performers in 1934. In Karaganda, he began his concert activity as a soloist of the Regional Philarmonic Society (1937). However, this work was interrupted by the World War, at the front of which he served all its years (1941-1945). Upon returning from the front, Myktybaev connected his life with Alma-Ata , where he worked as a soloist-kobyz player at the Zhambyl Kazakh State Philarmonic Society and Каzakhconcert (1945-1965). Like Zhappas Kalambayev, he led the kyl-kobyz class at the Almaty Conservatory (1970-1976). Among his pupils are many remarkable followers continuing the tradition of Yklas: the Honored Art Figure of the Kazakh SSR К . Azhmuratov; head of the kobyz and bayan faculty of the Conservatory, professor B. Kosbasarov; and the teacher of the K. Baiseitova Musical School, А . Zhumabekov. Daulet Myktybaev has his own compositions for kobyz – küys and transpositions of folk music. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/%D0%94%D0%B0%D1%83%D0%BB%D0%B5%D1%82+%D0%9C%D1%8B%D0%BA%D1%82%D1%8B%D0%B1%D0%B0%D0%B5%D0%B2">Read more on Last.fm</a>.
