	San'at :: The Uzbek pop music at the change of centuries (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		Thus, music touches different sides of musical culture of the present time: both aesthetic orientations and forms of musical expression, interrelation between a composer and wide audience.
		Now not the details of musical texture are important but general contours and genre attributes of the musical work - a characteristic rhythm in the dancing play or bright intonation and standard poetic text in the hit.
		A new stage of pop music in Uzbekistan of the 90s was connected with the style phenomena, which had substituted the traditional pop art (the repertoire of the Uzbek pop music was formed because of arrangements of pop songs and creativity of composers of the 60s - 70s).

	Identity and Exoticism in Sevara Nazarkhan's Yol Bolsin by Tanya Merchant
		The importance of promulgating Uzbek language as a part of Uzbek nationalism and the shift away from Russian as the lingua franca is certainly evident in Nazarkhan's oeuvre.
		I believe in the world music arena as well as in Uzbekistan, Nazarkhan is creating a sonic space for modernity and tradition to exist simultaneously and she is certainly doing it by injecting her music with what could be considered “Western” sonic elements.
		In terms of the world music scene, she is able to combine both traditional songs and modern electronic music, mixed in at a European studio.

		The name, which translates as six maqams refers to the structure of the music, which contains six sections in diverrent musical modes, similar to classical Persian music.
		Interludes of spoken Sufi poetry interrupt the music, typically beginning at a low register and gradually ascending to a climax before calming back down to the beginning tone.

	San'at :: Art Heritage in Uzbek Pop - Music
		For the practice of these groups is important the creative approach to tonal-rhythmic ground of Uzbek music and creation of original pieces of national pop-music basing on these grounds.
		It should stated that in Uzbek pop-music is forming such tendency as turning to art heritage of bastakors as well as to repertoires of famous singers-khafizes.
		Turning of pop-music to genres of musical heritage is extremely important and complicated process, therefore its practical solution is a responsibility of high skilled artists.

	G.F.Kuehn: Usbekistan-Pop (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		Uzbek singer Sevara Nazarkhan's music is a haunting fusion of ancient and modern, Western and Eastern.
		Yet she maintains her traditional ensemble, is acclaimed by the masters of Uzbek music, and has in fact two separate audiences – one ageing and conservative, the other young and hungry for the new and international.
		If Western music authorities are generally dismissive of the conservatory's impact on Uzbek music, it certainly hasn't blunted the bluesy starkness of Kuziyev's playing.

	H-Net Review: Robin Bisha on The Hundred Thousand Fools of God: Musical Travels in Central Asia (and ...
		In demonstrating the similarities in musical culture among the Uzbek and Tajik Muslim populations and between the Muslims and the Bukharan Jews, he also analyzes the Soviet cultural policies which attempted to build ethnic (or national in Soviet parlance) identities to correspond with the borders of the Union Republics of the region.
		For the most part, however, performers with a deep spiritual component to their music, the fools of God of the title, lament that they are the last of their breed, that people have become secular in their desires and that music as Turgun Alimatov and Tohfaxan Pinkhasova, for example, have practiced it is dying.
		Perhaps the absence of even traces of European musical aesthetics in the music Levin recorded is the most telling evidence of the failure of Soviet policy both to eradicate the old musical/religious tradition and to replace it with a pan-Soviet culture.

		Before its lands were crushed, its people scattered, and its music silenced by chaos and decree, Afghanistan overflowed with musical treasures, its lyrical instruments and haunting melodies as astonishing in their variety and uniqueness as the ethnically dense country itself.
		For the second disc, he gathered music from southern ethnic groups (including urban music from Kabul and Herat), whose music has a Pakistani and Indian flair, as well as Kazakh and Turkmen groups dispersed across the country.
		Needless to say, it’s the sort of local tea-house musical culture that has all but disappeared, although the dance piece played by Abdul Mazari and Bangecha Tashqurghani is remarkably similar to music I’ve heard by Taj Mohammad, a popular Uzbek singer in northern Afghanistan today.

	The Scotsman - S2 - Uzbek musicians swap Silk Road for Sauchiehall Street
		All of a sudden, the group of Uzbek musicians and dancers joining Scotland’s Battlefield Band for its Silk Road tour found that their hitherto little-known country had developed a high profile, for all the wrong reasons.
		The instrumentalists are: flautist Abdurashidov Abdulakhad; drummer or doyra player Nosirov Husan; Dadaev Akhmadjon on the Uzbek fiddle or gijak; and Lutfullaev Ilyas, a professor of traditional music at Tashkent Conservatoire, who plays the bouzouki-like dutar and the stringed rubab.
		They are virtuoso players, and their flamboyant, highly rhythmic music, as one might expect from the Silk Road melting pot, bears centuries of influence from Turkish, Kazak and Kyrgyz cultures, and sounds, perhaps surprisingly, Middle Eastern, although with a distinct stamp of its own.

		As a result while the national authenticity was predominant in music the period of determining the theme beforehand and the period of orders of praising the communist ideology has started.
		But as a result of one culture pressure and despite of dilemma of “national” and “international” the element of national in the music has been preserved in the hearts of the people.
		Anyhow one cannot deny that the mass establishment of music schools in years 1920-1930 in order to impose western music instead of oriental one in the implementation of one culture policy have had positive effects on national music.
