    Toi music (Той) is a genre of popular folk music originated from Central Asia. This genre of music is popular in countries like Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan.[1][2]

    Etymology[edit]

    The meanings of toiortой in several Turkic languages are either celebration, gathering, or wedding. This is due to the fact that toi music usually played at social gatherings, where toi musicians usually invited to perform in it.[3]
