68 records. Every source id used anywhere on this site resolves to one of them.

Everything on this site is attributed. Quotations are marked as quotations and carry the document they came from. Where sources disagree, the page says they disagree instead of choosing quietly.

The Foundation’s own English

The pages the Foundation wrote about itself, in English, around 2004 are the primary source here. They are characterful, they are the family’s own account, and they are the origin of most later English writing about Ziyodullo Shahidi — the English Wikipedia article descends from them. Where they can be quoted rather than paraphrased, they are. Spelling and obvious typing errors in the 2004 text have been regularised silently; no wording has been changed.

Her last interview

On 2 July 2026, at the house-museum of Sadriddin Ayni in Samarkand, Munira Shahidi gave an interview to zarnews.uz about her father’s music and the Silk Road. She died thirteen days later, and it is the last thing she published. It is used here as a primary source: for the dating of Komde and Madan and of the museum, for the account of the 1996 conference in London, and for her own summary of what her father was doing. Her word for the organisation she founded, in that interview, was a foundation for culture.

Reference works

The Russian and Tajik encyclopedias, the Music Encyclopedia article by Z. Tadzhikova, Elena Orlova’s monograph of 1986 and her portrait essay of 1990. Tajik Wikipedia is the source for the 1957 newspaper polemic, which appears in no English account.

Things this site does not say

A father’s death. The Foundation’s text says Muqaddaskhon Shahidi was murdered in the terror of 1937. A Russian source says he was arrested by the NKVD and died in prison six months later; a Tajik interviewer in 2013 spoke of him as having been shot. The year and the fact are firm. The manner is not, so no manner is stated.

Who played what. The 2004 biography contains a sentence whose subject is ambiguous: whether the virtuosity on the nay, tanbur and dutar and the work founding theatres in Tashkent and Samarkand belong to Ziyodullo or to his father. English Wikipedia read it as the father. Russian sources independently place Ziyodullo in the theatres of Tashkent, Samarkand and Stalinabad until 1939, so this site reads it as Ziyodullo, and says of the father only what other sources say: that he was a musician and that the shashmaqom was played in his house.

Dates. Buzruk is 1972 or 1976. Gulomon is 1978, 1979 or 1980. Komde and Madan premiered in 1960 or 1961; his daughter’s last interview says 1960, staged in Dushanbe, which is the strongest claim on it. The museum was founded in 1987, gained its republican status in 1989, and one Tajik source dates both it and the Foundation to 1996; the same interview says the systematic work began with the museum in 1987 and the Foundation followed in 1992. All variants are shown on the chronology, and none of them has been quietly dropped.

The Foundation’s registered name. The Foundation’s own 2004 site called it a foundation for culture. The site published until 2026 called it a music foundation. Russian sources use the culture form. Until the registration document is seen, this site says “the Shahidi Foundation” and nothing longer.

UNESCO. UNESCO funded the “Music of the Silk Road” project and included the composer’s centenary in its list of memorable dates for 2014–15. A standing UNESCO aegis over the Foundation could not be confirmed, so it is not claimed.

The museum’s address. A report of 2018 says the composer’s house was demolished and the collection moved to the grounds of the Academy of Sciences. Unconfirmed, so no address is published.

Corrections to the previous version of this site

Five statements carried by the site until 2026 have been changed or removed here.

He was the father of Tajik symphonic music, not Persian.

His father was murdered in the terror of 1937. He was not sent to a labour camp; those are different facts and only one of them is supported. His name was Muqaddaskhon Shahidi.

Samarkand is in Uzbekistan. It is a Persian-speaking city with a thousand years of Persian poetry behind it, and the Foundation’s own text gives it as “Samarkand, Uzbekistan”.

Munira Shahidi died on 15 July 2026. Every sentence about her is in the past tense.

A confectioner’s house has been removed. The old site opened its account of his childhood with the line “From a confectioner’s house in Samarkand”. It is a good sentence and there is no evidence for it. The Foundation’s own pages, the Russian, Tajik and English reference works and the family’s research files were searched for it in four languages and returned nothing; the claim appears to originate with whoever wrote that page. It is cut rather than kept, because a site correcting other people’s unsourced statements does not get to keep its own. What is documented — a father who kept a salon where the shashmaqom was played — has taken its place.

    UNVERIFIED CONTENT. The URL and date come from the family's own research files, which cite this article twice: once for the museum's founding in 1987, and once for the statement that the house was taken down in the rebuilding of the capital and the collection moved to a building on the grounds of the Academy of Sciences. Asia-Plus returns 403 to automated fetching and the Internet Archive was unavailable when this was written, so nobody on this rebuild has read the article itself. It is kept, and marked, because it is the reason this site publishes no street address: if it is right, an address would send people to a building that is gone. Someone should open it in a browser and either confirm it or strike it. Note also that the research file places the demolished house on проспект Рудаки while the museum's address is elsewhere given as ул. Лоик Шерали 108 — a discrepancy this record does not resolve.
