Fikret Amirov is one of the composers who made important contributions to the development of contemporary Azerbaijani music. Amirov brought a different perspective to the symphony in this field by creating a new genre called symphonic mugam, which is described as the "birth of Eastern symphonic music". The research was carried out in order to examine the artistic life, works and contributions of contemporary composer Fikret Amirov, who lived between 1922-1984, to Azerbaijani music, and to draw attention to the importance of the famous composer in the field. In the literature review, very little research was found about Amirov. The findings are important in terms of making Fikret Amirov better known in the world and giving a perspective to future studies on this subject. In the research, document analysis method, one of the qualitative research methods, was used. As a result of the research, it was observed that Amirov was a versatile composer by giving many works in different genres, and he worked with the multicultural musical understanding in his works with the mugam symphony he created. However, it was concluded that Amirov played a major role in the development of contemporary art by bringing many works to Azerbaijani music in forms that have not been used before.
