Unseen photos of Qamar-ol-Moluk Vaziri


Her existing birth certificate, issued in capital in 1925, legally records her first name as “Qamar-ol-Moluk” and her last name as changed from “Seyed Hosayn Khân” to “Vazirizâdeh”, a name she chose for herself in honor of the musician and theoretician of music Ali-Naqi Vaziri.
Vaziri retired from singing in 1956, having worked for over 30 years with songwriters and poets in homeland, such as Morteza Neydavud, and having been recorded on several gramophone discs.
