Listeners invariably   are  conquered  by a  beautiful timbre of his unique voice, impeccable manner of performance of folk music, rigorous exquisite selection of works in conjunction with a high skill. Favorite genre of  Ilham Shakirov - old folk, the so-called broaching, the song "ozyn koy."

 "As time passes, it  is inexorable. I'm not upset that  so many years of life have passed, I  did a lot during this time - traveled the world, where there are Tatars, spoke to them and not only. In general, I believe that if a person lives in a soul of the song, he never can do anything wrong. Therefore, children should be accustomed from childhood to the music that their souls lived good, "-  Ilham Shakirov  said.
