celb.jpg (43179 bytes)Chigure or Chegir are the the main instrument played by Ashighs usually accompanied with Balaban, Dayreh 
Ashighs are professional players of either Saz(Sorna), Davool(Dohol), Balaban, Dira(Dayreh) and Chigure or they can play all these instruments are used in the same party and close music system but timing and pairing is different.
Saz and Dohol are paired together and played in outdoor and tunes are specific for a ceremony such as Henna ceremony or dressing Bride or moving bride Toawell known Tunes are  bridegroom in  house or when group kerchief dance or halai or combat dance. The most popular tunes are  kurughlo, Grayli "rasta and Gharakhan

But...The Chgure Is usualy  Paired  with Balaban or sometime Dayra and the chigur players are the Ashighs If The Kurughlo and Grayli which were played in Saz o Dhol is just for  warm up But in Chigure these are the main Theme of  a complete story of the party guests who danced or enjoyed whole day gather in room or sometime in public square and they become audiences to listen to the story told by the Ashigh.The story teller Ashigh the one who plays Chigure 
He walks across the room back and forth narrates story and sings the conversations between the characters of story
these stories usually are Kurughlu and Negar his lover and his struggle or romantic story about Shah Esmaeel (King Ismail of Safavid) and his lover Pari or Shasenam and Gharib or tragic stories even  or any other story by and poems recited by ashigh

Beside The Azerbaijan also in Turky which Chigure is Trade mark of Folk Musicor Ashighs Music, A Large Section of the central Iran Countryside and the cities of Saveh, Ghom, Arak, Tafresh, Hamadan Consist of mixed Language & Culture peoples Mostly Turks of Shasevans, Kurds and Lors Chigure is most s influential instrument in the cultural life of the people of this Area.
Some they Think  The Chigure and Baghlama are same  instrument with same name But it is not the case

Chigure has 10 Strings almost similar with lower height Bridge and tinier face plate  even the wood material differ even the music  systems and even the way  they are hold...Hope in future I write a  complete article in this regard-Thanks for reading
