Asiq Nargile

This is a recording of Asiq Nargil?'s first concert in the UK. Recorded live at Cafe Oto on the 18th October 2014. The pieces performed are named after the traditional havasi (melodies) they are based on. Lyrics are taken from destan epics, regional poetry and Nargile’s own lyrics to match the rhyming patterns of these melodies. Yaniq Keremand Ruhani are both instrumental pieces which depict their own stories without words. Ay Ceyranim is a popular song performed at weddings across Azerbaijan.
