Ajoutée par mehdiarianmehr, 28 Jui 2024 Iranian Folk Songs (Climates) One of the most valuable cultural and artistic treasures of any nation, land, or ethnic group is its local (folk) music. This music is not an individual creation but a social expression, a creative group art, a form of art evolution. The artist is not merely a copyist of life but an interpreter and transformer of it. Authentic Iranian music derives its identity from local music, and its authenticity owes to the music of the regions. Local music is very diverse and has roots in the history of various ethnic groups. Each group and locality has used a specific type of it for centuries. Although most of these modes can be found in the periods of ancient Iranian music, the most important feature of this music is its modal nature. Each region, ethnic group, and locality has adopted and familiarized itself with a particular type of it, and the musical expression of modes in each region and ethnic group differs from others. This collection is an arrangement of native songs from different regions of Iran and Iranian folk songs that have been reconstructed in a modernist way and written for symphonic orchestra and choir. With a modernist expression in terms of instrumentation and polyphony in Iranian music, it strives to align with global orchestral music while maintaining an Iranian essence. In arranging these pieces, an effort has been made to create a new harmonic and contrapuntal space by taking a serious and different approach to the native sounds of Iran, without compromising the melody lines. The composer's innovative instrument, the Iranian microtonal lyre-guitar, plays a role in this musical work for the first time in contrast to the Iranian national orchestra. I. Fars Local Songs II.
