The Azerbaijani State Philharmonic Hall will present a concert
program 'From Mugham to Symphony', Azernews reports.
The concert program is timed to the 100th anniversary of the
great national composer Fikrat Amirov.
At the concert, the soloists will be accompanied by the
Azerbaijan State Symphony Orchestra conducted by People's Artist
Yalchin Adigozalov.
Fikrat Amirov successfully synthesized folk music and mugham
traditions with modern musical techniques.
The composer wrote the first Azerbaijani lyrical-psychological
opera on a contemporary theme. In the opera 'Sevil', the composer
used a variety of musical forms.
Amirov's symphonic mughams 'Shur' and 'Kurd Ovshari' are
unprecedented in the history of world music.
He is the author of numerous operas, ballets, symphonies,
symphonic poems, symphonic mugham, suites, capriccio, piano
concertos, sonatas, musical comedies, and songs, love songs, piano
pieces, music for dramatic productions, and movies.
Fikrat Amirov's heritage, which calls for patriotism, always
instills spiritual richness, and glorifies human ideals, is one of
the brightest pages in the history of the Azerbaijani music.
UNESCO will celebrate the centenary of Fikrat Amirov. The
decision was announced at the 41st UNESCO General Conference in
Paris.
As a result of joint activities of the Culture and Foreign
Ministries, Azerbaijan's Permanent Mission to UNESCO, and the
National Commission for UNESCO, the relevant nomination documents
were submitted to UNESCO.
The events have been included in the program of anniversaries
for 2022-2023.
