  abstract = {Developing automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems for low-resource languages is hindered by the scarcity of transcribed corpora. This proof-of-concept study explores songs as an unconventional yet promising data source for Kazakh ASR. We curate a dataset of 3,013 audio-text pairs (about 4.5 hours) from 195 songs by 36 artists, segmented at the lyric-line level. Using Whisper as the base recogniser, we fine-tune models under seven training scenarios involving Songs, Common Voice Corpus (CVC), and FLEURS, and evaluate them on three benchmarks: CVC, FLEURS, and Kazakh Speech Corpus 2 (KSC2). Results show that song-based fine-tuning improves performance over zero-shot baselines. For instance, Whisper Large-V3 Turbo trained on a mixture of Songs, CVC, and FLEURS achieves 27.6% normalised WER on CVC and 11.8% on FLEURS, while halving the error on KSC2 (39.3% vs. 81.2%) relative to the zero-shot model.
