\u200bOn the occasion of the 100th birthday of Azerbaijan\u2019s national leader, the late Heydar Aliyev, a concert by Azerbaijan People\u2019s Artist and world-renowned mugam master Alim Gasimov and his daughter Fargana Gasimova was held at the Atat\u00fcrk Cultural Center, hosted by our University and the Consulate General of Azerbaijan in Istanbul.<\/strong>
The concert, organized in honor of the 100th birthday of the late President of Azerbaijan Heydar Aliyev, was attended by the Chairman of the Board of Trustees of our University, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Mustafa Ayd\u0131n, the Consul General of the Republic of Azerbaijan in Istanbul Narmina Mustafayeva, university representatives, and many Turkish and Azerbaijani citizens.

Speaking before the concert, the Chairman of the Board of Trustees of Istanbul Ayd\u0131n University, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Mustafa Ayd\u0131n, said: \u201cThroughout my entire life, I have been a friend of the Turkish world who has devoted his heart and soul to Azerbaijan. Today we will commemorate the 100th anniversary of Heydar Aliyev\u2019s birth. He dedicated his eighty-year life entirely to the Turkish world\u2014not only to Azerbaijan, but to the entire Turkish world. He was a leader who sacrificed economically, socially, and culturally for the freedom and independence of the Turkish world. As you know, with the understanding of \u2018Two states, one nation,\u2019 he always conveyed to us the inseparable bond of Azerbaijan\u2013Turkey friendship, like flesh and bone. What falls upon us is to pass on his philosophy, his way of thinking, and his style of governance to the generations that come after us. Through such events, we must convey all the work he carried out. Otherwise, we would be killing them. How can we keep them alive, like Atat\u00fcrk, like Fatih, like Kanuni, like Attila? Only by passing on their ideas, thoughts, and deeds to the next generation. With such events, we aim to convey Heydar Aliyev\u2019s ideas\u2014above all, the idea of independence, above all, the idea of freedom, and above all, the freedom of one\u2019s own flag and homeland\u2014to the generations that follow him.\u201d

At the event, Azerbaijan\u2019s world-famous mugam artist Alim Gasimov and his daughter Fargana Gasimova gave a concert. Artist Alim Gasimov stated, \u201cWhen we come to Turkey, we present our own music and our own resilience to the people here, and the people have great respect for Azerbaijan and Azerbaijani music. Dear Azerbaijan, dear Turkey\u2014they have always been brothers, and may their brotherhood last long from now on.\u201d Fargana Gasimova said, \u201cWhile performing on stage here, we felt as if we were in our homeland. Therefore, it is a very exciting, honorable, and joyful day for us.\u201d

The commemorative night concluded with the concert given in honor of Heydar Aliyev by Azerbaijan People\u2019s Artist and world-renowned mugam master Alim Gasimov together with his daughter Fargana Gasimova.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
