About Latife Cheshmeli

Latife Cheshmeli (Lətife Ceşməli) is a female singer from Azerbaijan who grew up with a great love for ashiq music, which arose in the 15th–16th centuries as Turkic epic singing merged with Islamic mystical poetry. Although her father forbade her to learn the saz, after her marriage, Latife’s husband encouraged her to study with a master, and today she is a popular professional ashiq with constant engagements at weddings and festivals.
