Mugham and Täsnif (mugham Shushtär)

This track includes an improvised piece (called simply Mugham), followed by a Täsnif (art song). The text of the first section is a love song ("Bändhoy muytü, oy dukhtär", "Oh your plaits, maiden), in the form of an Azeri Goshma (strophes of four lines with refrain) by Ḥizghil Avshalumov. The Täsnif, in this recording, an Azeri song "Seslä meni" by Sh. Abdulkarimov, is in the same format.
