Bio / Background
Reviewer: "nsabba" (Brookline, MA)
Madjid Khaladj provides such a finely tuned percussion accompaniment to the master of strings Alizadeh and the smooth voiced Rassa'i that you wonder how could it be any better.
Khaladj's "reez" on the tombak shadows her highs and lows like a human chorus. Of course, this is a real surprise yet not a surprise if you know his mastery of the tombak and the daf (see the other CD's by him in the anthology series). He elevates the tombak to a fully vocalized instrument capable of having a voice like other traditional string and wind instruments.
It is also so fresh to hear Ms. Rassa'i again. For example, starting with the first cut she show her ability to weave in an out of the strictures of the generally down beat Abu-atta to provide an exceptinal brilliance to the system.
I recommend this CD very strongly to anyone who is interested in Iranian music.
