by Khebedin on

Though Iranian ( Plato of Iran, not just the current Iran) music has not progressed much technically due to the Islamic views, after the Persian Empire was defeated by the Arabs, but this has caused improvisation more specific and unique to Iranian  music. There are cons and pros, matter of opinions. No doubt Iranian music is well behind technically and still in the renascence if not medieval stages, but if you come from the area and have the ability to feel the secretes hidden in the sounds and the virtuosity of the player, there is a lot to enjoy, it can take you to a different world. And this is sadly what is lost in the Western Music, the complexity and restrict musical laws significantly limits the performer’s input (improvisation) on the music. I enjoy both, as one could enjoy women of very different cultures.

Bah Bah!

Aali boud! One of the most beautiful play I have ever heard.

Don't worry "High Five", we the bisavad,  have our words to say, too!


High Five

افتضاح!

High Five


Such a master and what do they do? They attach his playing coming from one of the strongest cultural traditions in this world throughout the ages to some Hollywood orchestral trash and then to add insult to injury, some bisavad Iranians say : bah bah.

 

!افتضاح!

تار زنیهای استادانِ آذری همیشه برجسته و زیبا هستند،هر چند که در کوک اختلاف کم و حوصله بیش..اما اینان پاسداران واقعی‌ موسیقی‌ اصیلی هستند که بیش از چند صد سال قلب را از زشتیها می‌‌شوید،مغز را از افکارِ ناپاک به دور و به روح جانِ بیشتری میدهد.

این تفاوتِ موسیقی‌ سنتی ما با موسیقی‌ کلاسیکِ غربی است... اشکال در نحوه شنیدن و سپس حس کردن است.متأسفانه گوشِ شنوا کم و دهانِ پر ادعا فراوان ! کاش این در ما عوض شود.

با سپاس.
