Singing in Zazakî, Kurmanji, Armenian and Turkish, he brings together songs gathered through years of research with deeply personal interpretations, led by the expressive power of his voice and the distinctive sound of the tembur. Since 2023, Gönültaş has performed in 24 countries, bringing the music of his homeland to audiences across Europe and beyond.
