MP3 Lame Insane 320 kbs + Full scaned Booklet (Persian, French and English) = 160 MB

Ostad Soleimani is a father figure to many of the musicians of Iran. Many believe that he is one of the most important artists in Iran. He is a bakhshi from Khorasan and he lives as a farmer in a small village close to Ghouchan. This recording was made by a group of engineers and musicians at his home using the state of the art digital multitrack recorders. You can expect something very new from this compact disk. The tradition of this music goes back a few thousand years, however, unlike many other traditional music, it is played with an amazing ferocity and yet the expressions are very refined. The music demands your attention which we hope will be rewarded by very subtle and profound emotions.

"… A True National Treasure …."
Liberation

"He gracefully took his dotar and started playing. And it was a miracle."

"His Virtuosity and musicality are as natural as they are incredible."
Le Nouvel Observateur

"… one of the world's great traditional musicians…"
Todd Michel McComb

How awsome is it that an unknown village dotar (two-string instrument) player and singer finds himself featured on amazon.com and a guy from california writes him a review? It's pretty awsome. To find out what makes Ostad Soleimani leap from a village to the world stage (let's not forget his sold-out concert in Paris!), you should listen to his mastery of the dotar and his mesmerising, heart-felt, voice. Ahhhh…. just gotta love it!! He sings with such passion… almost running out of breath at the end of some of his chants… as if pleading with his last might to his lover. We see what "passionate" singing and artistary mean! Be one of the few (yes the few, the proud…) to own this jem and know of this national treasure.
