QIRIM is 14 ancient songs, each representing a particular area of ​​the Crimean Peninsula and presenting the local culture and language. More than 80 musicians joined the work on the album.

"Today, the language in which the compositions are written is on the verge of death, according to UNESCO. The people who created these records have been under threat of extinction for centuries. But is it possible to erase the memory of the monumental beauty of music, which was passed down from generation to generation?" Jamala said.
