Among Kurds living in Iran, music connected with the activities of daily life and traditional social events is most often practiced. One of the oldest traditions is the unprofitable profession of bard singer (goranîbij.) Singing this epic song titled “Xanê Keyqa,” about a famous Kurdish knight, is 70-year-old bard singer Hadji Hemederes. He is said to be the best bard singer among Murki Kurds.
