Tara Jaff (Kurdish: تارا جاف, romanized: Tara Gaf) is a Kurdish musician who has been exposed to many ancient influences. Over the years, Jaff experimented with different string instruments, but it was her fascination with the ancient harps of Sumeria, Assyria, Hurrians and Elam, dating as far back as 3000 BC that led her to the contemporary Celtic harp. She has embraced this instrument and introduced to modern Kurdish music, particularly in modern folk songs. Having developed her own innovative style to adapt to the various musical rhythms and modes of the region, Jaff brings a contemporary expression to an ancient form of music and song.
