Marat Bisengaliev (Kazakh: Marat Sámetuly Bısenǵalıev , born 1962 in Kazakhstan) is a Kazakh violinist and conductor of both the West Kazakhstan Philharmonic Orchestra and TuranAlem Kazakhstan Philharmonic Orchestra. He is the founding Music Director of the Symphony Orchestra of India. In addition, he is head of the Uralsk International Violin Competition. Most of the time he lives and works in the UK and India.

Bisengaliev lived for three years in the small town of Malvern Hills, Worcestershire, England, where the famous English composer Edward Elgar (1857–1934) was born. He was invited there as a "musician in the residence." But he also worked there as a scientist, visited libraries and houses related to Elgar, collected all possible materials about him and recorded a complete anthology of his works. The first two discs of this album were recorded in 1999 and 2001. To this release, the violinist added another third disc recently, which he recorded together with the West Kazakhstan Philharmonic Orchestra in 2010. And in 2011 he released the full anthology of Elgar in his performance on the triple CD "Elgar / Elgar". The violinist still regards this as his most significant achievement.
