Persian Aural Feast
Add to CalendarOn Sunday February 12 Dizzy's jazz-club will host a rare "Persian Aural Feast".
Musicians from all over California will present many flavors of Persian music. You'll hear the Tar - "the king of Persian instruments" - played by Ashkan Ghafouri (of the Bay Area) and San Diego's own Farhad Bahrami.
Also featured will be the Setar - different than it's Indian cousin , the sitar - played by Kourosh Taghavi.
From L.A. Kamran Aghtaee will play the Ney, the simple 7-hole bamboo flute, which when played with Persian technique, produces a breathy other-worldly sound.
Drummers Faramarz Amiri (from L.A.), Fardin Karamkhani (also from L.A.), and local teenager Kamron Bahrami form the rhythm section (using Tombak & Daf), along with another local teenager Nima Heydari on fretless bass!
Aryan Rahmanian (from the Bay Area) will soar above the music, singing the mystical poetry of the Persian Sufi poets Rumi & Hafiz.
