After being introduced to professors from the Uzbekistan State Conservatory, she prepared under their guidance. She studied vocal, and then later became a popular singer in Uzbekistan after independence in 1991. She became famous throughout Central Asia and later in Turkey and has released songs in many languages, such as Uzbek, Uyghur, Turkish, Russian, Tajik, Arabic, Kazakh, Chinese, Indian and Tatar.[3]

Works

Yulduz Usmonova, through the creative use of folk melodies, enriched with the spirit of patriotism, created songs based on the verses of Muhammad Yusuf and many other poets (We won't give you to anyone, Uzbekistan), (May you remain ours, my people). Furthermore, Uzbek music in the 20th century included traditional lyrical songs (Nastarin, Sanamgina, Qizil Olma), festive songs (Nozanin, Buxorodan kuyov Qiling), lyrical-dramatic compositions (Ona, Shoh va gado, Otajon, Allohim, Muhammad Yusufga), and performed a range of foreign and friendly nations' songs on stage, such as "Allah Allah Ya-Baba" (in Arabic), "Dunyo" (in Turkish), "Parvardigori" (in Persian).[4]

In the late 1980s, Yulduz Usmonova released her debut album, "Mayda".[5][4] In 1990, she won second place in the international competition "Osiyo ovozi," held in Alma-Ata.[5][4][6] Following this, her album "Olma-Olma" was well-received on the World Music Charts Europe, reaching high rankings.[5][6] Her song "I Wish You Were Here," with English and Uzbek lyrics, achieved high ratings on several European pop charts.[4][6] Later, she released albums such as "Jannona" (1995), "Men shu yerda bo'lsang" (1995), "Binafsha" (1996), "Tanlov albomi" (1997), and "Dunyo" (1999).[4] Additionally, in 1999, Yulduz Usmonova participated in a music festival in the Netherlands.
