|||||
The Iranian conductor and composer Alexander Rahbari grew up with and trained in traditional Persian music with its most influential maestros. His eight symphonic poems, "My Mother Persia", of which this is Volume 1 of 2, are full of melodies, rhythms and improvisations in these traditional styles, brought to life with the colours of modern orchestration. The first of these is an emotional violin concerto in which the soloist plays the role of the Nohe Khan, usually a tenor who sings in traditional Persian style at various religious ceremonies. "Mother’s Tears" refers to a gathering of orphans and to Rahbari’s own experiences of tragedy, contrasting with a subtext of mischief in "Children’s Prayer".
