Hossein Alizadeh

– Hossein Alizadeh

© Tar Alizadeh

Hossein Alizadeh is a musical legend in his native Iran. He plays the Persian long-necked lute tār with unmatched virtuosity. Yet the musician is not a traditionalist. Though his playing is rooted in the traditional music of his country, his performances bring it into the here and now. For example, he has developed a new instrument from the traditional setar: the shourangiz, whose name means “to give passion”. With the two singers Zohre Gholipour and Mehdi Emami, we also hear two of Iran’s most important musical voices.

Artists/Collaborators: Hossein Alizadeh, Zohre Gholipour, Mehdi Emami, Behnam Samani, Houshmand Ebadi, Saba Alizadeh, Parisa Pooladian, Ali Boustan
