House-Museum of Niyazi

House-Museum of Niyazi, Memorial museum in Baku, Azerbaijan

The House-Museum of Niyazi is a memorial apartment museum on Bulbul Avenue in Baku, a branch of the Azerbaijan State Museum of Musical Culture. Its five rooms include three memorial rooms—dining room, bedroom and study—kept as they were when the conductor and composer Niyazi lived there from 1958 until his death. The study's central wall is hung with photographs taken by Niyazi himself.

The flat where conductor and composer Niyazi lived and worked from 1958 until his death became a museum by order of Azerbaijan's Ministry of Culture on 28 December 1990. It opened on 18 September 1994 with Heydar Aliyev attending, as a branch of the Azerbaijan State Museum of Musical Culture.

Niyazi was a conductor and composer, People's Artist of the USSR, not a literary figure. The museum, a branch of the Azerbaijan State Museum of Musical Culture, holds memorial evenings, conferences and concerts on the republic's musical life. His work room keeps the central wall of photographs he hung himself, showing Azerbaijani and world musicians.

The apartment has five rooms on Bulbul Avenue: three memorial rooms (dining room, bedroom, study) kept as in Niyazi's day, plus an exposition room and a guest room. His study wall is hung with photographs he placed himself, showing Azerbaijani and foreign musicians. The bedroom holds his furniture and personal items from the 1960s-80s.

The work room's central wall is hung with photographs Niyazi took himself, showing Azerbaijani artists alongside famous musicians of the world. The museum also holds 279 vinyl records and 5 manuscripts by other composers, alongside 120 of his own note manuscripts.
