About the artist

Fikret Meshedi Jamil oglu Amirov (Azerbaijani: Fikrət Əmirov, pronounced FEE-krat A-mir-ov; born November 22 1922, Ganja, died February 20, 1984, Baku) was a prominent Azerbaijani composer of the Soviet era. Amirov's music was strongly influenced by Azeri folk melodies. He created a new genre called symphonic mugam. Amirov's symphonic mugams were based on the classical folk pieces and were performed by many renowned symphony orchestras throughout the world, such as Houston Symphony Orchestra conducted by Leopold Stokowski.
