Iranian Traditional Music
Iranian Traditional Music is a rich and diverse art form that has evolved over centuries. It is characterized by its unique scales, known as dastgahs, which serve as the foundation for melodies. Instruments such as the tar, setar, and kamancheh are commonly used, each contributing to the distinct sound of this music.
The music often reflects the cultural and historical influences of Persian society, incorporating themes of love, nature, and spirituality. Performances can be both solo and ensemble, with improvisation playing a significant role, allowing musicians to express their creativity while adhering to traditional structures.
