Program and Registration

What happens when a kui is stripped of its primordial nature and subjected to standardisation? When did this process commence, and how was it enacted? Are the popular kui we listen to today merely standardised versions? If so, what was their original form, and do we truly know it?


The lecture-discussion is dedicated to exploring these pivotal questions.


Moderator: Annas Bagdat, creator of the Shezhireli Qulaq Kuy project

Speaker: Murat Abugazy, kuishi (traditional kui practitioner and performer)
