April 3, 2025 marks the 100th anniversary of the birth of Alexey Grigorievich Kalkin (1925-1998), a famous Altai storyteller and performer of heroic epics. A.G. Kalkin was the first to receive the title of "People's Storyteller-Kaichi of the Altai Republic" for his unique throat singing performance of Altai folk tales. His epic "Maadai-Kara" is a poetic monument of world significance (translated into Russian, Tuvan, Mongolian and Kyrgyz languages).
