Course Description

This course continues the systematic development of professional performance skills in Azerbaijani mugham art for students specializing in traditional vocal performance (khananda singing). Within the instructional framework, students further study the performance characteristics of mugham dastgahs, rhythmic mughams, tasnifs, and folk melodies.
Through this course, students further refine the proper use of the vocal apparatus, breathing techniques, intonation accuracy, ornamentation, and improvisational skills. By deepening their understanding of the modal–intonational structure, developmental logic, and expressive potential of mughams, students learn to apply these elements in accordance with national performance traditions.
The instructional process emphasizes ensemble coordination with instrumental accompaniment, effective emotional and expressive communication during performance, stage behavior, and professional ethics of the khananda. In addition, students are prepared for concerts and mugham evenings, with continuous training focused on strengthening live performance culture and stage experience.
