ISTANBUL- The Kurdish Guitar Repertoire book, which includes the lyrics and guitar accompaniment chords of Kurdish songs published in the last 13 years, has been published.

 

The Kurdish Guitar Repertoire book, which includes the lyrics of Kurdish kilams and guitar accompaniment chords, has been published. The team, which promotes the book in the press, plans to strengthen the fight against assimilation with its work. The book, which contains the lyrics and accompaniment chords of 112 songs published in the last 13 years, includes songs of various artists and groups who have contributed to Kurdish Music through their songs, regardless of their popularity level.

 

The book also targets people who play or try to play instruments such as guitar, piano, and ukulele. The book also includes chord demonstrations, rhythm beat diagrams, and QR links to videos showing how to play rhythms. The book, published by Ceylan Publications, can be ordered through many book sales sites, especially ceylankitap.com.

 

CULTURE STRUGGLE

 

Helezonik Creşendo team shared the following lines in the foreword of the book: “About 13 years ago, as a group of musicians and music educators, we prepared the Kurdish Guitar Repertoire and published this work of approximately 200 songs in 2 volumes. The preface of this study, whose PDF you can access free of charge on our website (helezonikkresendo.com), ended with this sentence; 'Keep your guitar on your back and the fighting spirit inside you.' In the intervening period, exploitation, war, migration, plunder and oppression have not been missing from our geography, nor have rebellion and resistance been missing. Those who pursue an equal and free world still continue to fight against the system with various tools. The cultural struggle has an important place in these struggles. Those who follow a struggle that is wanted to be destroyed, a people who want to be condemned to silence, and a language that is wanted to be abandoned to wordlessness and produce songs are an important part of this struggle. Songs can touch all emotions, maybe they cannot change the world on their own, but they affect the consciousness and emotions of those who will change the world. For this reason, one of our efforts was to find ways to deliver these songs to more people. Since we thought that the people who would benefit from the book would be people who play or learn guitar, we paid attention to the use of different rhythm patterns and tones.”

 

The team stated that the book could also be seen as a listening recommendation, which is why they included so many musicians.
