The Art of Doston Narration in Uzbekistan
Description " Uzbekistan has three regional styles of doston performance: Surkhondarya-Qashqadarya, Khorezm, and Karakalpak. In the Surkhondarya-Qashqadarya style, the doston narrator performs in a guttural voice and accompanied by drum (two-stringed musical instrument). In the Khorezm style, doston songs are performed in a simple voice and accompanied by tor, doira, and bolaman. The Karakalpak style of doston is performed in two ways: Romantic dostons are accompanied by karakalpak dutar and ghijjak; heroic epic performances are accompanied qo’biz (very ancient stringed instrument). This film includes representatives of all three schools. We learn about their lifestyles, master-apprentice traditions, and processes to prepare certain musical instruments. Recording was conducted in Kashkadarya, Surkhondarya, and Khorezm regions and in the Republic of Karakalpakstan."
