A kamanche solo leads into a maqam Shur improvisation followed by a solo on the tar. The composition builds towards a fervent and celebratory finale where the full range of musical traditions from the troupe are given their moment to shine. The lyrics sung in Persian by Tayyar Bayramov are from Muhammad Iqbal's poem 'The Mosque of Cordoba'. Recorded live at the Dubai EXPO. ------------------------------------ #SamiYusuf #BeyondTheStars #DubaiEXPO #WorldMusic #WorldMusicTraditions #TheMeeting
