A Sweet Memory Of Qamar-Ol-Moluk Vaziri

  Qamar later recalled attending her grandmother's singing at the mosque, among the experiences which inspired her to become a singer. She began her career in singing at age 19 in 1924 when she performed at the Grand Hotel in Tehran. When she performed she was among men and without the veil. During another performance at the Palace Theater in Tehran, again without the veil, she was accompanied by Morteza Neidavoud, who she had met when she was 16, just a few years earlier. He encouraged her to study music under his tutelage and she studied and performed in 1924.
