The memorial concert will take place at Bilkent Concert Hall in
Ankara on November 21
The program will feature Fikrat Amirov's Mugham poem, 12
miniatures, Ballad for Violin and Piano, six pieces for Flute and
Piano, fragments from the ballet 1001 Nights, as well as Ruzgar
Ahmadzada's music pieces for cello and piano dedicated to the
composer.
The concert will bring together talented musicians Heyraddin
Hoca (cello), Albena Sezer (flute), Nazik Rahmadova (violin), Tofig
Shihiyev (piano) and Huseynali Huseynaliyev (violin).
Fikrat Amirov, the founder of the symphonic mugham genre,
brilliantly 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 Azerbaijani music.
