My musical Yazidi tribute
First attempt at composition so it's a bit ropey. I titled it Yazidi just as a nominal tribute to what they are going through, additionally this piece
is in kurd makam.

Thanks, Marcus. The Yazidi are part of a Kurdish religion who have presently been driven into the Iraqi mountains by Islamic militants. Seems nice
that the US have sent their planes over there to help them out and arm the kurds... but if they were being persecuted by, say, the Israelites I bet
they wouldn't be so quick to help.
The Yazidi religion is Yazdânism, which, according to Wikipedia comes from the Kurdish/Avestan word yazdān meaning "worthy of worship".

Thanks for the clearyfication.
The german word for them is "Jesiden", not to far from Yazidi.I should`ve been able to "beat the bridge" .Maybe I havent been fully awake.
Cheers,
Marcus
