MAHJUBI MORTEZA - CD SELECTED IMPROVISATIONS..

Popis - SELECTED IMPROVISATIONS..:
A collection of stunning Persian-tuned piano pieces cut from Iranian national radio broadcasts made for the Golha programmes between 1956 and 1965. Morteza Mahjubi (1900-1965) was a Iranian pianist and composer who developed a unique tuning system for the piano which enabled the instrument to be played in all the different modes and dastgahs of traditional Persian art music. Known as Piano-ye Sonnati, this technique allowed Mahjubi to express the unique ornamental and monophonic nature of Persian classical music on this western instrument.
