In their soundscapes, Jazzpiya incorporates Kirmanci influences from traditional Kirmanci music and harmonies. They also weave in elements of new improvised music and modern world music fusion. The musicians’ sonic capabilities and the diverse combinations of orientalised and improvised music are of extraordinary importance to the group. Alongside traditional Kırmancı sounds, Jazzpiya’s music is also characterised by Western musical elements such as jazz, reggae and folk.
