How it will look: each site gets its own colour scheme and structure.

In brief

Jazz took hold in Baku in the 1950s–60s. Vagif Mustafazadeh brought mugham modes into improvisation and jazz-mugham was born.

Today the city has clubs, a jazz festival and a jazz department at the conservatoire — the tradition continues.
