Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com
12-century Persian poet Jallalidin Mohammede Balkhi Molavi, a.k.a. Rumi, is probably more famous now than he was during his lifetime due to the proliferation of new music being made in his honor by contemporary poets and musicians. While much Western ambient and pseudospiritual music is made in his name these days, there is still a continuing tradition of respect and creation carried on by Iranian artists, and this CD is a testament to his inspiration. Dastan includes Kayhan Kalhor on setar and kamancheh, Pejman Hadadi on percussion, Hamid Motebassem on setar and tar, and Hossein Behroozi-Nia on barbat. These are all well-respected artists in their own right, which makes Dastan a major ensemble in the Persian music world. But the center of this recording is singer Shahram Nazeri, one of Persian music's great classical singers, whose powerful vocals dominate the music here. Expertly performed and beautifully recorded, Homage rises above the already high standards of these musicians. --Louis Gibson

5.0 out of 5 stars Magnificent work..., September 22, 2000
By Arash Moghaddam (College Station) - See all my reviews
I respect the opinion of everyone who has taken the time to express their views. This CD is without a doubt a jewel to possess in one's collection, because the artists have struck a brilliant balance between traditional and contemporary Persian music. From start to finish Shahram Nazeri and the masterful musicians perform flawlessly with pure energy and feeling. My suggestion is that you buy this album, turn off all the lights and other distractions in the world and turn up the volume as you take in the love and spiritual high that Mr. Nazeri's voice exudes. Bravo to the Dastan Ensemble. It's a rush...

5.0 out of 5 stars The Real Stuff!, December 21, 1999
By A Customer
As Rumi becomes more and more popularized in the west with syrupy renderings springing up at the bookstores like ragweed it is wonderful that a recording like this is available to the public! Here are sincere and disciplined musicians who are working from the heart and not out of your wallet! This is the real stuff!

5.0 out of 5 stars Nazeri's best ablum by far, December 21, 1999
By Babak Nabili "Babak" (Redwood City, CA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I have been a Nazeri fan for quite a while and I have enjoyed most of his CD's. But he has outdone himself with this CD! The selection of poems by Molana (Rumi) and Hafez, and the musical arrangements are absolutely phenomenal! This is especially enhanced with Kalhor's skillful performance. I highly recommend this CD to all Nazeri and Molana fans.
