Biography

Nigina Amonqulova was born in Panjakent, a city in Western Tajikistan. In her childhood, she wanted to be a doctor, but after she had successfully performed a song at a school-leaving party she chose the career of a singer. She took part in a music festival in Dushanbe and won the first prize.

Then Nigina moved to Dushanbe, the capital of Tajikistan, and began to perform Tajik traditional folk songs. Soon she became famous throughout the country, mainly due to her non-pop style of singing. Many Tajik folk songs were revived by Nigina and reportedly they gained an even greater popularity in Tajikistan than they used to have. Nigina performs her songs with a soft voice, what feels like love of a very close person, like mother voice. Nigina wears bright Tajik national costumes, which resembles the authenticity of her performances .
