While Kurdish and Persian music are historically related, each has formed a unique path of development since ancient times. <b>Kayhan Kalhor</b> is a virtuoso of the Persian <i>kamancheh</i> (spike fiddle) and brilliant exponent of the Persian classical repertoire. <b>Ali Akbar Moradi</b> is a superb performer of the Kurdish <i>tanbur</i> (lute), an ancient instrument long associated with mysticism. Together they improvise on Kurdish modes, creating a new musical genre that transcends boundaries.Tue, 07 Oct 2008 09:24:01 -0500http://kayhankalhor.calabashmusic.com/#album_62032
