Dengbêj is a Kurdish music genre and/or a singer of the music genre Dengbêj. Dengbêjs are singing storytellers. There have been many terms to describe Dengbêjs throughout history, but today Dengbêj is the best known, and also several singing storytellers use Dengbêj as part of their own (artistic) name. Dengbêjs are viewed as a way to transmit the traditions of their Kurdish ancestors in times as it was not possible to publish in Kurdish or about Kurdish history. Since there don't exist many documents about certain Kurdish events, today there exist attempts to analyze them through the songs of the Dengbêjs. They sing about Kurdish geography, history, recent events, but also lullabies and love songs.

- I dengbêj sono dei cantastorie o poeti-cantori curdi, depositari delle tradizioni e della lingua curde, il cui repertorio è costituito da canti, tramandati oralmente, di avvenimenti storici o epico-leggendari. La figura dei dengbêj è paragonabile in parte a quella degli aedi dell'antica Grecia o a quella dei bardi celti. Il canto dei dengbêj è accompagnato talora da strumenti a fiato come blur e düdük. I testi dei dengbêj furono raccolti tra la fine dell'Ottocento e gli inizi del Novecento dagli etnografi di lingua tedesca e Albert Socin. (it)
