During the Autumn Assembly in Lalish (October 2002) a stranbêj was invited to the Guesthouse of the Sanctuary, to perform for the guests (tribal and religious leaders) staying the night in the two huge halls of the Guesthouse. Later, at the request of the researcher, the stranbêj also ascended to the room on the upper floor, where the female members of the Princely Family were staying and played there for the women.
