Kurdish music
Kurdish music (Kurdish: میوزیکی کوردی, romanized: Mûzîkî Kurdî, or مۆسیقای کوردی) refers to music performed in the Kurdish languages and Zaza-Gorani languages. The earliest study of Kurdish music was initiated by the renowned Armenian priest and composer Komitas in 1903, when he published his work "Chansons kurdes transcrites par le pere Komitas" which consisted of twelve Kurdish melodies which he had collected.
