  • Kayhan Kalhor/Erdal Erzincan the Wind
    ECM Kayhan Kalhor/Erdal Erzincan The Wind Kayhan Kalhor: kamancheh; Erdal Erzincan: baglama; Ulaş Özdemir: divan baglama ECM 1981 CD 6024 985 6354 (0) Release: September 26, 2006 After “The Rain”, his Grammy-nominated album with the group Ghazal, comes “The Wind”, a documentation of Kayhan Kalhor’s first encounter with Erdal Erzincan. It presents gripping music, airborne music indeed, pervasive, penetrating, propelled into new spaces by the relentless, searching energies of its protagonists. Yet it is also music firmly anchored in the folk and classical traditions of Persia and Turkey. Iranian kamancheh virtuoso Kalhor does not undertake his transcultural projects lightly. Ghazal, the Persian-Indian ‘synthesis’ group which he initiated with sitarist Shujaat Husain Khan followed some fifteen years of dialogue with North Indian musicians, in search of the right partner. “Because I come from a musical background which is widely based on improvisation, I really like to explore this element with players from different yet related traditions, to see what we can discover together. I’m testing the water – putting one foot to the left, so to speak, in Turkey. And one foot to the right, in India. I’m between them. Geographically, physically, musically. And I’m trying to understand our differences. What is the difference between Shujaat and Erdal? Which is the bigger gap? And where will this lead?” Kayhan began his association with Turkish baglama master Erdal Erzincan by making several research trips, in consecutive years, to Istanbul, collecting material, looking for pieces that he and Erdal might play together. He was accompanied on his journeys by musicologist/player Ulaş Özdemir who also served as translator and eventually took a supporting role in the Kalhor/Erzincan collaboration.

It is an open question whether Iranian music has changed as a direct result of the Revolution, or whether the music would have evolved similarly in any case. Before 1979, one could easily have separated Persian music into two distinct categories: art music and pop music. The strong censorship practiced before the Revolution required the music to be void of any political messages, and most of the time pop music was the form presented on The National Radio and Television of Iran. Broadcasts of traditional music performances usually ran no longer than 15 minutes. This restriction was established by the producers and had the effect of cramping the music and its form. One can compare traditional Persian music to the classical music of the West, which one should listen to from the beginning to the end with full attention. This form of Iranian music is based on improvisation and has a very inward quality.

  • Hossein Alizadeh Rembrandt Trio
    JL007 HOSSEIN ALIZADEH REMBRANDT TRIO » SAME SELF, SAME SILENCE « » SAME SELF, SAME SILENCE « These are sounds of the ancient and the modern. • Echoes of jazz solidify among the chromatics of the dastgāh, adorned by ornaments both Persian and Baroque. • Musical instruments that were nearly lost to history resonate with those that are the first of their kind. • The art music of three continents swirls together as sweet-scented vapour and become one. HOSSEIN ALIZADEH Few musicians of contemporary Iran are as respected as Hossein Alizadeh. He is the leading master of Persian lutes: the tar (the hourglass-shaped lute), the setar (a long-necked lute with variants across Central Asia and the Middle East), and, as you can hear on Same Silence, Same Self, the shurangiz, an instru- ment built to his own specifications that serves as a midpoint between the two. Born in Tehran in 1950 to mixed Persian-Azeri parentage, Alizadeh quickly became immersed in the tradition of musiqi-e assil – the classical music of Iran that can be traced back many centuries. He became a professional musi- cian aged just 15, and was soon noted for his powerful yet delicate performance style and his virtuosity in improvisation within the classical structures. Aside from strict interpretations of classical and traditional music, Alizadeh has also been at the forefront of innovative music in Iran, and has ex- panded the possibilities of what is thinkable within the realms of Persian music. He has been particularly celebrated as a composer, with notable works including HOSSEIN ALIZADEH a concerto for ney (end-blown reed flute) and string orchestra entitled NayNava (1983) and scores for the films Gabbeh (1996) and Turtles Can Fly (2004).

Ce dossier propose une réflexion prospective, s’appuyant sur les nouveaux axes de recherche, les terrains et les méthodes récemment apparus, ainsi que l’interdisciplinarité de plus en plus marquée qui caractérise l’ethnomusicologie aujourd’hui. La prise en compte de la mobilité, des phénomènes de migration, de la globalisation et de l’appropriation de cultures musicales exogènes, notamment par les outils issus de la « révolution numérique », ont imposé aux chercheurs de s’adapter et d’inventer une ethnomusicologie différente, à partir d’ethnographies inédites (par exemple sur les réseaux sociaux ou sur des terrains multi-situés), et nécessitant un nouveau type de positionnement.

    Hossein Alireza Alizadeh Zarbang Ghorbani SA7. NOV2015 20UHR Allerheiligen-Hofkirche Residenzstr. 1 München KARTEN UNTER: www.MuenchenTicket.de KT1 32€ KT2 27€ Mit freundlicher Unterstützung von: Veranstalter: Chakavak Ensemble München „Liebestrunken“ ist das Motto für die Verschmelzung mehrerer künstlerisch-musikalischer Elemente der klassischen persischen Musik in diesem einmaligen Projekt von Klang, Gesang und Perkussion. Hossein Alizadeh: Tar, Setar Zarbang: Alireza Ghorbani: Gesang Behnam Samani: Daf, Tombak, Dammam, Udu Siamak Jahangiri: Ney Pejman Hadadi: Tombak, Daf Ali Boustan: Shurangiz Javid Afsari Rad: Santur, Naghare Saba Alizadeh: Kamancheh Reza Samani: Tombak, Daf Hossein Alizadeh ist Komponist und Instrumentalist und einer der wichtigsten Protagonis- ten der persischen Gegenwartsmusik. Er wird an diesem Abend durch seine Kompositionen in Begleitung von Gesang, Ney und Perkussion (Zarbang Quartett), dem Publikum eine neue Richtung der persischen Klassik präsentieren. „Liebestrunken“ vereint Kompositionen von Hossein Alizadeh zu Texten großer klassischer als auch zeitgenössischer persischer Dichter. Das Programm wird der Improvisation, einem wichtigen Charakteristikum der persischen Musik, einen großen Raum bieten, denn sowohl Hossein Alizadeh als auch die anderen Musiker sind Meister der Kunst der Improvisation und verstehen sich darauf, ihr Publikum zu begeistern und mitzureißen. Alireza Ghorbani gehört zu den populärsten Interpreten traditioneller und klassischer ira- nischer Musik. Er ist Sänger des iranischen Nationalorchesters, mit dem er bei zahlreichen Veranstaltungen im Iran und im Ausland aufgetreten ist. Zarbang kombiniert als Welt-Perkussionsgruppe eine erstaunliche Vielfalt von Rhythmen mit vielfarbigen Klangelementen; die Musik des Ensembles hat ihre Wurzeln in der klassi- schen persischen Musik, öffnet sich aber Einflüssen anderer Kulturen und erschließt so neue Klangräume, die eine große Bandbreite musikalischen Ausdrucks ermöglichen.
