Sherali Juraev (also spelled Sheraly Juraev; Cyriilic: Шерали Джураев) is a famous Uzbek singer whose name is synonymous with well-to-do wedding performance. He was born in 1947 in the heart of Uzbekistan, in Muday village in the Ferghana Valley. He learned the best traditions at local vocal schools taught by Mamurjan Uzzakov (Andijan) and Kamildjan Ataniyazov (Khorezm). His repertoire includes about 600 songs, half of which are his own. His particular voice and style have inspired many others to imitate him. As a result, each Uzbek city today, and even each village, has its own “pseudo-Sheraly. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Sheraly+Juraev+And+Ensemble">Read more on Last.fm</a>.
