Navaz [1] is an ensemble that fuses Persian music with a variety of Western genres. Elements of jazz, Latin and blues are blended with Persian melodies and rhythmic grooves. Navaz began as a musical collaboration between Neda Jalali and Eric Tompkins. Eric's jazz and Latin guitar stylings and his interest in world music compliments Neda's beautifully haunting voice. Much of the music of Navaz is rooted in the Sufi poetry of Hafez and Rumi, while some of it has a more contemporary Persian sound fused with Spanish, Brazilian and jazz rhythms >>> [2]
