Dastan
Description The art of doston narration — is one of the bright examples of poetic folklore’s epical traditions and intangible heritage. Initially the compositions were created in the form of songs, without any musical instruments, subsequently, the songs with the accompaniment of some musical instruments, such as drum, qo’biz (string instrument), etc, were created. Ancient examples of dostons came into existence during the times of primitive society among Turkish tribes. Master-apprentice traditions evolved as the number of creators of narrators of epic dostons and performers increased.There are different schools of doston narration in Uzbekistan, such as Bulungur, Narpay, Kurgon, Khorezm, Shakhrisabz, Sherobod, Karakalpak, Kamay and Piskent.
