Revival of the mugham traditions in the context of the realities of the modern world

Abstract

The proposed work is aimed at the feasible correction of some of the established views regarding the essence and significance of the mugham tradition and music in general. An attempt to understand the problem from a slightly different position is dictated by the need to revive them in the previous full-scale format. One of the clearest examples of the revival of the tradition of mugam
singing today, the activity of xanende – ustad Alim Gasimov, known in the world for his creative talent, is in the focus of research.
