Today we hear the great master musician and composer Hossein Alizadeh, one of the greatest of his generation, in a concert recording from Los Angeles in 1993. He peforms improvisations in Dastgah Nava on Setar with Madjid Khaladj accompanying on Tombak. A deeply moving and profound performance. Persian improvised concerts like this from a musician of his calibre is a very rare treat, and Ottawa will have the great fortune of hosting a concert by Hossein Alizadeh with Pejman Hadadi accompanying Saturday April 12th at the Alumni Theatre, Ottawa University. Not to be missed!
