shaheediyan Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=SH9sipWUJVk&...feature=related Not bad. Sounded more traditional towards the end, the first part sounded strangely Alpinesque... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morghe Sahar Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 Dear Shaheediyan, the song is actually traditional. It wasn't an improvisation. The song is called Morghe Sahar and is a traditional Iranian song. You can watch a far better version of this song here: As for the "alpinesque" thing...Alpinesque sounds more like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nwLEGLXOqok But if that's what you're hearing in my poor rendition why not.Must be the Swiss chocolate I guess iodala hi ho. Mithar, I always look angry. Didn't you know I inspired the Les Grosman character in Tropic Thunder? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tv0ZM2DmZn8 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morghe Sahar Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 I have still loads of work to do. In the meantime enjoy this: I hope there will be more such Indian-Iranian collaborations at the musical level. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morghe Sahar Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 Any string instrument to you is a thumbi anyway. Jimi Hendrix played? Electric thumbi of course. Yehudi Menuhin played? Bowed thumbi. Ravi Shankar plays? bahman thumbi. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaheediyan Posted January 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 The 2nd video is nice, but the fusion causes confusion in this case. On one hand we have a lovely folk style quite simplistic in its utilisation of notes and the tar, and on the other we have tabla, playing subtle intricate bols - which are made for complex raaga renditions... A fusion with a dholki type drum (Pakavaj at a push) would have been more suited in terms of a more simple rustic sound and playing style which is more reflective of folk music. This would compensate for the drums normally used in this type of folk such as the bandari. IMHO. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=47n0aXL3xwU Sorry, that is not the best exampe of Bandari, but the guy made me laugh! Heidi, lol - thats like playing bhangra and calling it a ghazal! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morghe Sahar Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 I think you're referring to the 1st video with the guy playing setar. It is inspired from a folk song in the mahour. I disagree about the 2nd video.Far from simplistic really. As for Heidi, das ist doch Alpenmusik oder nicht? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaheediyan Posted January 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 Das ist cartoon and and media interpretation of Alpenmusik, I was only talking about certain early parts of your rendition being 'esque', not true Alpenmusik! (which is not represented by Heidi cartoon lol). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
