Mugham as a genre took shape in Azerbaijan in the period of the “Muslim Renaissance”, which is at- tributed to the 12th-13th centuries when many great poets created. Their ghazals, like the poetry of later writers, formed the basis of Mugham. In those distant years, the formation of various schools of Mugham singers began in Baku, Shamakhi, Ganja, Nakhchivan, and, of course, in Karabakh.

This policy aims at the strengthening and development of the state system and the protection of the national interests of Azerbaijan. Azerbaijan builds its foreign policy on the principle of respect to the international legal standards and norms, the state sovereignty and territorial integrity and the principles of nonintervention into the internal affairs. The foreign policy of Azerbaijan, adhering to these principles and speaking on behalf of the national interests targets such urgent issues as the risks and challenges to the national security and territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of the republic and the prevention of the intervention of the Republic of Armenia. The major priorities of the foreign policy of Azerbaijan are the establishment of the regional peace and stability, the implementation of large transport and cooperation projects. The attraction of the foreign capital to the implementation of different projects on the development of the country's economics for more effective protection of the national interests plays a great role in the foreign policy of Azerbaijan in the present-day world.

Was this a conscious choice or rather something more contingent? This question touches on why I play mugham. One can love a certain kind of music and just listen to it; one doesn’t have to learn to play it in order to enjoy it. But for me there was never any question, I had to apply myself to learning to play mugham and I never asked myself why. From the first moment of hearing it played live, right in front of me; I was already thinking how to ask for lessons so I could learn to play it too. And at first I was only concerned about learning how to play mugham. However, thanks to the curiosity of a few friends, I had cause to play this music for others even though I was just beginning my studies. They encouraged me to perform this music, unknown to all of us, as much as I can, so I took that advice to heart and soon after I arranged for a performance at UCLA (University of California in Los Angeles) and another one at Grinnell College in the State of Iowa. I noticed that being on stage performing for others didn’t bother me or make me nervous so I decided to arrange for more public demonstrations of mugham, as I understood it those early days. Shortly after moving to New York City in 1974 I had my first public appearance there in the Gallery of Musical Antiquities at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
