The symposium was organized with the support of the Culture Ministry, Azerbaijan National Academy of Sciences (ANAS), the Turkic Culture and Heritage Foundation, and the Azerbaijan National Conservatory. The initiative aimed to explore the legacy of the great composer and the ashiq art from the perspective of common Turkic cultural codes, and to examine their role in shaping national and spiritual identity. The discussions covered topics such as the shared musical memory of Turkic peoples, traditions of the ashiq art, the influence of classical literature, and particularly the role of Uzeyir Hajibayli in the creation of national cultural codes. A highlight of the event was the session titled "Uzeyir Hajibayli's Work as a Cultural Dialogue Between East and West," held at the Azerbaijan National Conservatory and moderated by Honored Art Worker and musicologist Professor Zumrud Dadashzadeh. The closing session of the symposium was held at the Azerbaijan National Conservatory.
