The Tajiks living on the eastern side of the Pamir Plateau and in Tashkurgan, Shache, Yechen and other places have a long and diversified musical tradition. Their settlements are located at the most mysterious and beautiful crossroads of the ancient Silk Road. All ethnic groups in the Western regions, as well as ancient Persian, ancient Indian and ancient Arab civilizations, have left their marks on Tajik music. The Musical Instruments of Tajik nationality are rich and similar to those of Uyghur nationality, but they retain their own ethnic characteristics. The tabla Dabu has a wide poplar frame, covered with animal skin, the string instrument Aichek has a unique violin case, the plucked instrument Tajdalzhwaf is often dug out of whole apricot wood, the sheep casing string, and the most noticed and praised Tajik eagle whistle "Nai"...

In this folk song, the Dumubak strikes a sonorous and scattered rhythm, and the sound of the strumming of Jevafu is gurgling and flowing out, weaving in it is the elegant string sound of the Czech blade, and the broad but deep female voice, singing in a low voice of missing the bereaved relatives. Melody in the simple and sad melody circle, as if a long yearning in the heart, but also in a group of friends and relatives linger, pouring out the long feelings, the life of the deceased and the past time.
