Alexander Rahbari: My Mother Persia: Nos. 4 5 6 7 and 8Alexander RahbariAlbumGenre: ClassicalDescription: 'My Mother Persia' is a cycle of eight symphonic poems by the distinguished Iranian-born composer and conductor Alexander Rahbari. Three of the works on this album set some of the finest Iranian poetry and are cast for the tenor voice employing traditional sung forms. Rahbari's music utilises the lavish sound world of the symphony orchestra but contains many of the essential elements - scales rhythms and colours - of Iranian music.
