Khosrow’s song of Iran died
Mohammad Reza Shajarian Khosro, the master of Iranian music, died today and joined Hazrat Mehboob. He, who had sung from the bottom of his soul for years with his eternal beloved love, today, Hazrat Eshgh welcomes him. We can be sure that tonight is the night of his connection and he is engrossed in the attraction of visiting Hazrat Bari. Undoubtedly, his loss is unfortunate for the people of Iran who loved him from the bottom of their hearts, his dear family and his students and colleagues in the world of music and singing.
By singing Rabana’s song, Shajarian reminded everyone that his heart is devoted to God, but he has no means to show off. His poetic choices show the depth of his familiarity with literature and his companionship with the greats of Iranian literature. When he reads a poem by Saadi, Hafez, Maulana, or Abthaj and Faridun Moshiri, he actually gives life to the same poems. A few years ago, I saw him at a party at Mr. Dr. Isa Kalantari’s house. He was also a teacher of Pirniakan. He tuned and played the accordion and sang shajarian and charmed the audience. The ecstasy that hearing the same poems with Shajarian’s voice creates in a person is different from other states of Ben. And this is the concept of re-creation that is in the power of singing and music. And Shajarian at the peak of his ability could give new life to poetry. This is why he was able to create eternal pieces that are deeply embedded in the souls of Iranians and Persian speakers.
Shajarian was not a repeat of the past. He was the creator of the past. Therefore, his ballad is modern and fresh. And this can only come from someone who has understood the old art and has the ability to add something new to it. He was an artist in the true sense and not only an artist who knew the honorable position and dignity of art. Therefore, relying on the sanctity of art, he stood up and stood up for what he thought was right and showed another face of the personality of a true artist. He never accepted to make the gem of art a tool for short-term interests. Therefore, in his fruitful life, he was always with the people of Iran. He stood by them in sadness and joy and became the voice of the people. Therefore, his songs are the whispers of Iranian people.
The name of Shajarian is connected with Iran. He was the voice of the Dawoodi nation of Iran and he stood by this matter. His record is proof of this. Therefore, he never sold his larynx to traders and always used it to make Iran’s art and culture proud. And at the end of his life, by being together with Hakim Abolqasem Ferdowsi, he caused a new synergy to raise the name of Iran and the idea of Iran. Undoubtedly, Shajarian is one of the best Iranian names in the last century and will remain eternal. I offer my condolences to his dear children Farzaneh, Mojgan, Afsana, Homayun and Rayan, and I wish him God’s mercy and eternal forgiveness.
