Listen to the 30 minute interview, which begins with a brief introduction of M R Lotfi and his student (and previous TNJT guest) Kouroush, who acts as an interpreter throughout the interview portions, and then onto discussions of the place of Persian classical music in Persian culture, it's relation to religion, and other aspects for those of us trying to get into the music.

Here's the pre-show prep, what little there was for an interview thought about many weeks before, but only arranged within an hour or so of the start of the show...hooray... Wow...what an honor...and a challenge, I believe. Here's how our friend and facilitator Farhad Bahrami, put it in his announcement to the masses... "Mohammad Reza Lotfi, a leading interpreter of traditional Persian music, will be making a rare Southern California appearance on Saturday, June 25. A virtuoso of the tar and setar (long-necked lutes), he will perform extended improvisations from the classical Persian repertoire - music that is highly ornamental and noted for it's poetic and spiritual qualities." Here are more Lotfi links. Come back for the audio archive after the show!!! 5:49:47 PM    comment []
