Traditional Persian music featuring a living treasure of classical Persian music, Rahmatollah Badiyi, on the violin and kamancheh.
Bio / Background
Rahmatollah Badiyi, a living treasure of Classical Persian music, was born in 1936 in Kashan, Iran. At the age of five he began to play the nei, a Persian flute. From age seven he demonstrated extraordinary musical talent as he would listen to the radio and then replicate the Persian music that he had heard on a violin.
He entered the Teheran Conservatory at age eleven when he began to study classical music. At the same time he began studying Persian music with the famous Abol-Hasan Saba who would work with him for the next five years. After graduating from the Tehran Conservatory, he collaborated with various national orchestras as a concertmaster and soloist for more than twenty-three years. At that same time he worked as a professor in the National Conservatory of Music in Tehran. He traveled to countries in Asia, Europe, Africa and the Americas to perform classical Persian music.
Among his many venues in the United States was Carnegie Hall.
