''Leyli and Majnun'' ((アゼルバイジャン語:Leyli və Məcnun)) is an Azerbaijani opera in four acts by Uzeyir Hajibeyov. ==Performance history== It was first performed on 12 January 1908 at the Taghiyev Theatre in Baku. The opera is considered the Muslim world's first opera.〔(''Leyli & Majnun'' ), ''Azerbaijan International'' (() Autumn 2009)〕 The first performance of the opera was led by Huseyn Arablinski and Hajibeyov himself played violin. Uzeyir Hajibeyov and his brother Jeyhun Hajibeyov wrote the libretto for the opera based on Azerbaijani poet Muhammad Fizuli's poem ''Layla and Majnun''; most parts of the poem remained unchanged. Thus, the opera ''Leyli and Majnun'' became a founder of the unique new genre in musical culture of the world, which synthesizes oriental and European musical forms, resembling a dialogue of two musical cultures of East and West.〔("''Leyli and Majnun'' – 90th Jubilee" ), by Ramazan Khalilov, ''Azerbaijan International'' (() Winter 1997)〕 This opera has been shown more than 20,000 times at the Azerbaijan State Academic Opera and Ballet Theater as well as in other countries such as Russia, Ukraine, Iran, Turkey, Georgia, Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Leyli and Majnun (opera)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
