Good to hear an Iranian composer use orchestral sounds so sparingly in a "simorgh" theme. Usually cymbals and brass create a lot of turbulence at the end of the flight, leaving us wondering if the bird crash landed.

It was time for Richard Tognetti work with some Iranian musician who knows well about western classical music, something that has always lacked.



I don't know how many hours they have had to practice to play this song but I see the result and I really like it.. is to be set in a very important thing, that most of those who play in this Orchestra are not one hundred percent professional and that's why Maybe there are some imbalances in sound but in general the thing has gone well and I'm hoping to see more things from this Orchestra and more collaborations with Iranian musicians.



It was joy to see again Simonov.she is really an artist .

Thank you for video .
