His piano professor was Simuzar Guliyeva and throughout his career, he gave numerous concerts on stage as a pianist and accompanist.
He owed his knowledge of traditional music to his father Zulfu Adigozalov (1898–1963), a prominent khananda singer of Azerbaijani mugham.
[2] Although Adigozalov had become seriously ill in the last few years of his life, he continued to carry out his responsibilities both at the Azerbaijan Composers' Union where he was Chairman (1990–2006), as well as the Music Academy where he had taught since 1961, and where he had chaired the Department of Choral Conducting (1992–2006).
Adigozalov wrote "Carnation" at the age of 25, as a tribute to Natavan (1832–1897), a famous 19th-century poet and ruler of Karabakh – a mountainous region known for being a cultural center in Azerbaijan.
