– DASTGAH-E MAHUR.
Performed by Dariush Talai, târ and setar virtuoso, who is recognized as one of the best performers of traditional Persian music. He was born in 1952 and started his târ study at the age of 10 with Maestro Ali-Akbar Shahnazi. Dariush Talai is not only a leading exponent, but also a philosopher and aesthetic of Persian music. He has invented a system of notation that encodes the concept of the “radif” and has also added a complete analysis of his syntax and modal structure.
