Farida Mahwash
She is one of the most popular radio singers from Afghanistan. After spending some time in Pakistan, she was granted political asylum in the United States in 1991 for her own safety. She was given the title Ustad (‘master’) in 1977, which is very unusual for a woman. Farida Mahwash is not politically involved: ‘Art is about affection and kindness’, she says. With the album, Radio Kaboul, she pays tribute to the composers she once worked with.

Turgun Alimatov.
He began his musical career as a violinist in the Tashkent Muqimi music theatre. But he is best known for his virtuosity on the tanbur, dutar and sato, all types of lute. Without paying any attention to the prevailing musical conventions, he decided to integrate folk and classical music into a music that is catchy for Uzbek, but also for European ears. On this album he can be heard together with his son Alisher, recorded in Paris in 1995.

Shahram Nazeri and the Dastan Ensemble.
Shahram Nazeri is one of the most popular singers in Iran and a master of the Sufi and classical Persian repertoire. The album is dedicated to Persian religious music, in particular to the poems of Molavi (known in the West as Hafez). The mystic Molavi (1207-1273) did not preach doctrine but freedom. He called on people to honor love, to love with complete surrender and awareness. By expressing Molavi’s and Hafez’ poems in song and play, Nazeri and the Dastan Ensemble try to make the listener a participant in a mystical world full of inner richness.
You will hear three titles from the CD. Through Eternity – Shahram Nazeri and the Dastan Ensemble. LABEL: Sounds True (1999), code: STA M 112 D. VIDEO
