Kurdish singer's double murder
The book "Yusuf Jelbi: The Kurdish Singer Who Was Killed Twice" by author Ibrahim Al-Yusuf has been published. It explores the life of the late artist Yusuf Jelbi, who is considered one of the most prominent founders of modern Kurdish music in Syria. The book details his life from his birth in 1927 in the village of Jablkrau, through his artistic career that combined preserving and renewing traditional music, as well as his political and social circumstances, including his arrest and torture by security forces in 1962, which ultimately led to his death. The author relies on rare interviews and archives, documenting Jelbi’s impact on Kurdish musical memory, accompanied by insightful commentary on his practices and his historical significance.
