When I first saw this reaction flag up on youtube as Matt reacting to a traditional Persian concert for 36 minutes, my jaw almost dropped down onto my laptop! After all anyone can set up a channel and react to any old crap for subscriptions/likes, etc. But you can only sit through a 36 minutes long performance, in an alien language and style of music if you truly understand and appreciate good music. This is why I have a lot of respect for Matt. BTW I did watch all of this reaction/video. And boy what a performance. They are all very good but boy, can that woman sing, or can that woman sing?! she can sing. Ps, I don't think this is a religious or spiritual song; more like ancient poetic love song. Maybe someone can correct me if I'm wrong.
@@kavehnasri4115 I don't think your comment is correct. Women can sing legally in Iran. all women or mostly women groups are also ligitt in Iran. I think it's only when it comes to mixed male and female pop groups that strict rules come in to force. I don't agree with it either; but lets not exaggerate the situation. Women are allowed to sing in Iran and indeed have their own concerts/videos. And rightly so.
@@kr22100 I live in Iran and I have to say that you're wrong. women can't sing, have concert or anything like that. so no exaggeration needed when reality is so ugly.
So just a few points as someone who's somehow familiar with Persian music. I'll try to answer as many questions as possible. Well, first of all, this is a kind of music that belongs to the inside of the geographic boundaries of Iran. So any of the descriptions like Middle Eastern music or even persian music are definitely wrong. So music is very very old in Iran, more than 5000 years old. And even though after the Islamic invasion many of the cultural heritage of the ancient Persians were destroyed, music were somehow preserved. Islam is essentially against music and considers it blasphemy, I mean Islam in its essence. So Iranian ancient musicians had to find ways to preserve such a rich heritage. For example, they hid some forms , melodies and rhythm in religious rhymes. Finally, at the end of the 19th century, around the 10% of all kinds and types of Iranian music were scripted in musical notes mainly by "Aliakbar Farahani and his children". The rest is still played in the countryside and it's passed from generations to generations. The scripted portion is divided into 7 types and around 700 melodies. If we include the non-scripted portion, we are looking at probably 5000 melodies. There are so many instruments as well as regional varieties of instruments. I know around 50 Iranian string instruments. The instruments here in this performance from the left side are tar(1200 year-old), Kamanche(1000 year-old), Santoor (3000 year-old) and the percussion instrument is called Tombak. Tar, just like guitar, is derived from Tambourine. A very very old persian/Indian instrument. The shape is just preserved from 500 years ago, but it's slightly larger. Most of these instruments are carved out of trunks of special trees and covered by skin of animals. I think it's enough for now. I'll share more next time you react to an Iranian classical song. Btw, sitting on the floor is more like a trend that classical musicians chose in mid 20th century to show their differences from pop music. It kinda indicates that it's coming from the past when modern furniture didn't exist.
As an Iranian, I really thank you for the information you have given to others about our Iranian culture, culture and music, and I hope that one day you will become more familiar with this culture and civilization of a few thousand years. I wish you all the best. Be ✨🇮🇷☺️
I have several middle eastern friends and truly, I love this music. It always makes me feel like dancing or at least moving to the music. Thanks for this Matt, this music's very often overlooked.
No middle east 👎. *** Persia , Persian ,IRAN are correct for this song 👍 .actually West Asia is more correct than Middle east . In west Asia there are not Arabs & Turks only . Persians , Iranians are so different culture and ethnics that have thousands years history & civilisation in the west Asia . This music belongs to IRAN , Persia , Persians. Thanks .🙏
از صدای این نازنین خیلی خوشم میاد ، پختگی خاص، لازمه موسیقی سنتی و اوج و فرودهاش را خیلی دوست دارم و به نظرم ،خیلی کمیاب هست تو خانومهای این سبک.پیروز باشی دختر نازنین و هنرمند.
Listening to this kind of classical Iranian music is like a journey. For me it is like a symphony that you can analyze after getting a proper impression. The first reaction for someone who is not familiar with the structure etc. feels like jumping on skis for the first time! But hats off, you did it very well❤❤👍👍
Hello. It is true that we are under sanctions now and many things have been taken from us, but also know that humanity, philosophy, history, and art have also been taken from the world. I am glad that you were able to find yourself on the path of immortality and perfection, when something enters the culture of Iran, it will reach its perfection because it is the oldest culture in the world and it can always give spirit to anything and reach perfection with this culture.
Long live Khan, my hair is spiky under the influence of this music, thank you for that good and quality music and thank you to these friends who enter the arenas professionally, thank you for your good choice. 💗💗🌹🌹
Thank you Matt for exploring this mystically cultural Persian concert. 8:00 There are 3 Tar/String instruments here; their names are in others' comments below. The man playing the vertical TAR instrument (PoorNazery) is also the Tanboor master who has been performing with the Shajarians, for over a decade. TAR, in Farsi/Persian means string, thread, or fiber, such as a thread of hair, or silk-fiber, which is why most of the world's string instruments today still have the word "TAR" within their names, such as Guitar. Woven TARS, creating a web, are called TOOR (web), which may be why the table-like string-instrument (on the right) is called SanToor/Santur, which is also the mother of Piano. !!! I see some excellent comments below, including the names of each instrument. . Thanks for all the explanatory comments too. !!!
The rhythmic parts are not improvisational. But the parts that do not have percussion in between are improvisational. The content is about a really intense spiritual love. Your reaction was great.
It's a love song man. 😁 And Persian classic songs are Loooooooong... We're patient people😁 we can endure 45 minutes of overture for just 3 mintues of singin' and still be happppy!
Fantastic group cooperation and AMAZING REACTION! you're awesome and patience . You can listen to a very long foreign music without getting tired. It's awesome!
The second part of the video was much more beautiful and attractive. I enjoy your reactions because of your knowledge and interest in music as well as the tonality of your voice. Tnx matt🌷
Thanks Matt for a great video and your patience to listening this long story about love 💕 and wine 🍷 That guy ( Sohrab) who plays kamanche is legend and you have played it before in another video. Have a great time 🥂🌹❤️
So nice. Thanks 🌹🌹🌹 The poems of this music are taken from the poems of the great classical poets of Iran such as Attar-e Neyshabouri, Moulana Rumi, Hafez-e Shirazi. The third part of this performance is a poem by Attar, which is taken from his book Mantiq al-Tair. In this book, Attar is like a guide who introduces the stages of mysticism and knowledge of God through the language of birds (which are the symbol of the mystic soul). In this poem, he explains the difference between the love of angels and the love of man for God, and believes that true love requires suffering and paining, while angels are painless and therefore can not experience true love.
Dear Matt. I still cannot believe that you listened patiently to our traditional music for more than 30 minutes!! I do believe that your passion to understand music from other parts of the world is real and this is why your reactions are so good!! You are one of a kind!!❤❤ Another thing. Buddy! If you want to know more about Iranian music, I have a suggestion for you. Sohrab Pournazeri, the one who is sitting to the left of the singer wearing blue, is a genius in music. You guys can become friends and he can professionally explain different genres of Iranian music to you. I am sure both of you will enjoy it. He is the same music player you saw in "Homayoun Shajarian- Rumi poetry" video. From Toronto With love and appreciation 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Suchhh a woOW !!! 🤍💚💜 that’s incredible. Really perfect . Thank you for this choice .. 👌🏻👍🏻 please more react to Iranian and Persian classic musics. Very unique 🤙🏻🤍
You're right, basically, originally this kind of music is more like a musical conversation between the instrument players and the singers. I don't think they're improvising here though. Maybe a little
First time I heard her start crying for only happiness that finally some Iranian girl came a cross and singing in such Persian music style and I’m really very happy for having her with such Crystal voice in our traditional music not many Iranian lady can do that she’s a gift from god to the Iranian god blessing her for years to come
"what's going on here?". well to answer your question i should explain that in classic traditional music you should consider instruments as a person who can think and speak. In traditional Persian music there are always "question and answer" between the instruments and the singer. sometimes the singer asks a questions or talking about something and then the instruments answers and vice versa. sometime they agree and sometimes disagree with each other. that's why when the instrument is playing the singer is silent and when the singer sings the instrument goes down or silent.
Divine, Holy, Sacred Verses & Music ! We have to be familiar with Old , Ancient , Historical Persian Culture and Tradition in order to understand all Surface as well as Deep Meanings and Structures ! Honored to see and hear that MASTERPIECE ***
Hi. Thank you for sharing that from my hometown. The Tar by far has the most potent sound among Iranian instruments. The word literally means a Cord and also we use it for each hair. The word Guitar is also driven from that and also the guitar itself. The other one named Kamanche is more like a Chelo not a violin. Aside from its size the main difference is that the musicians keeps the arch fixed and moves the instruments while in the chelo and violin the instrument is fixed and they play it by moving the arch. The string one named Santoor is also thought to be mother of piano. The Tombak with is the percussion one is played by ten fingers as you noticed. I'm not sure if any part has been improvised. Usually when the performance is without a singer, in with solo or duet they may improvise. When it is accompanied by a singer there is always a long introduction to convey the feeling of the music by the musicians and giving time to the singer (almost like a meditation). The themes are usually from our poets from 1200 to 800 years ago. Sometimes they perform modern songs too but very rarely. The music is divided into different positions and each song is carried out in a specific part or position. I share with you a link on RUclips from a specialist named Mohammad Khodadi who introduces the classification of our music. It is explained in Persian with English subtitles. As a person who understands music you can get a general notion of modals and may be you can contact him to explain you more. He lives in Austria and should speak German but I guess he would be able to speak in English too. Rather than that I ask you to listen and give your opinion about one of the songs of the best classical singer of Iran, Shahram Nazeri, who has received the medal of Legion de Honor for his life time work on Persian music. That if my favorite. The link is: ruclips.net/video/8E4B53S5DlM/видео.html&start_radio=1 Unfortunately it is recorded and is not live. I send you the following which is a live one where he sings in Kurdish language as he is from the Kurdish race of Iran and his mother language is Kurdish: ruclips.net/video/gar3GHWFMXg/видео.html And the link of the the Iran expert on the Theories of the Persian music is: ruclips.net/video/eA7_lWtSvAc/видео.html Hope you can enjoy them as much as I do or more. Best, Samira from Buenos Aires.
Majority of traditional persian musics like this one are literally poetry from Hafez, Rumi and other prominent poets that lived. They give these poetries rhythm and build musics around it. So the majority of lyrics go way back to year 1025 and before.
It's obviously section by section. If you look at ground in front of them, there are pages, and as far as I listened it was a romantic piece of poetry. Great reaction btw :) The instruments from left : Tar, Kamancheh, Santoor, Tanbur
Its a poem from Hafez a 14th century poet as one of the greatest Persian poets whose collection of works are in every Persian's home! (no exception!, This is true lol) His poems are mystical and romantic and as he was a man of God people take readings by his poem collection and its always accurate and to the point! Some of the lyrics here (not my translation):: From intense weeping, my eye's pupil have sunk in blood Look how people are in pain of your love To the memory of your ruby and wine like intoxicated eye, From the sadness cup the ruby wine that I drink is as blood From the east which is the sun of your light If it rises, my destiny would be prosperous...
Talking about the tar, the white part on the handle is made from camel's bone. The transparent part is the skin of unborn sheep or goats. There are parts that are made from wild goat's horns. In past the glue used to be made of houses.
Every culture and region in the word can make relation and feel about their literature, culture and music because of their collective subconscious and training. Most of iranian people when they listen to their traditional music they feel spiritual emotions. Though most of young people has been changed their taste. Iranian literature is mystical, romantic, ethical and epical and so iranian musics.
Matt, you're amazing, I can believehow patiently you listen to this traditional music. Starting from the left, The first instrument is called Taar, the one next to it is Kamanche, then the 3rd one is Santour and of course the last one is Tonbak.
hats off to u for staying on for half an hour to appreciate this ancient style of music. Aristotle praised it in his own day (while learning the language in order to understand the lyrics!) ur deeper than i thought . btw/ multi-chamber string instruments mellow but also amplify the sound. there are no improvisation allowed in a "destgah/raga" melodies. everything is regulated for thousands of years, as Indians also do, and Babylonians and Greeks did too. and all the modulations come at the very end, where it is missing from this clip.
Matt, first thanks for introducing the classical Iranian music to the world. I would say some of Iranian Music beauty comes from the Beauty of the Persian Language. I like your style, you do not stop the music for marketing talk. You stop for questions and explanations. I do not know how many times I have listened to this concert since it came out about two month ago. Sohraab pournaazeri sitting on right hand of the singer Ms. Sahar , he is only 37 and a genius composing musician; real hard working intellectual. There is certain amount of improvisation ; But if look closely , Sohraab conducts the group with his eye contacts and head head movements. See Moqaam See Dastgaah See Radif This music starts from Kashkar in west China's Shinjiang and goes all the way to Spain and north to Caucasus , Ukraine and Romania. Note: Iranian music was also influenced by the Indian sub continent. Greetings from California
4 instruments, Tar (Guitar type), Kamancha (voilon-like), Santoor (mustache guy hitting the strings.) and Tombak (drum-like). The guy with Kamancha is leading and I'm sure he has composed the whole thing, as you can clearly see, he is leading.
This music tells a story that the singer singing and the music changes according to the ups and downs of the story. like music of a movie. What she sings is an elegy, not exactly elegy, it is about the pain of love but the love here is just not for humans, the true love is for god. the person who can truly fall in love that person do not care about religion and ...
Thanx for your reaction towards our beloved traditional music , I guess u are a musician, or at least familuar with musical structures and terms. I'm learning to play setar, another homologue of Iranian Tar, and I,m also learning to sing iranian song, so as I'm really fond of our musical heritage, I'm also glad to see you being carried away by it, despite lack of knowledge about persian language. As you rightly guessed it's a blend of spirituality and art . Our music invites you to think very very deeply about yourself and the world and after all, if I were to summarize it in one word, i would say it is all about love the essence of creation. One tip about the poem she's reciting: He who was enforced in love , has nothing to do with belief or disbelief. What has the lover got to do with his own life? ( sorry for poor translation 😂) in fact , it means when in live, every thing except the beloved is ignored . To enjoy the poem fully, a knowledge of persian will be essentual helpful.😊 Thanx again
Instrument from left: 1: tar تار 2: Kamanche : کمانچه 3: santour or hammered dulcimer: search for Siamak Aghaei or Keyvan Ghazi for solo play of this beautiful instru 4: Tonbak تنبک
Dear Matt the name of the instruments are, Tar, Kamanche, Santoor and Donback. They are very old instruments. These are Iranian classic music and usually is to do with nature, love and love one, drinking wine and being merry, most lyrics come from very famous Iranian poets.

"what's going on here?". well to answer your question i should explain that in classic traditional music you should consider instruments as a person who can think and speak. In traditional Persian music there are always "question and answer" between the instruments and the singer. sometimes the singer asks a questions or talking about something and then the instruments answers and vice versa. sometime they agree and sometimes disagree with each other. that's why when the instrument is playing the singer is silent and when the singer sings the instrument goes down or silent.

Usually when the performance is without a singer, in with solo or duet they may improvise. When it is accompanied by a singer there is always a long introduction to convey the feeling of the music by the musicians and giving time to the singer (almost like a meditation). The themes are usually from our poets from 1200 to 800 years ago. Sometimes they perform modern songs too but very rarely. The music is divided into different positions and each song is carried out in a specific part or position. I share with you a link on RUclips from a specialist named Mohammad Khodadi who introduces the classification of our music. It is explained in Persian with English subtitles. As a person who understands music you can get a general notion of modals and may be you can contact him to explain you more. He lives in Austria and should speak German but I guess he would be able to speak in English too. Rather than that I ask you to listen and give your opinion about one of the songs of the best classical singer of Iran, Shahram Nazeri, who has received the medal of Legion de Honor for his life time work on Persian music. That if my favorite. The link is: ruclips.net/video/8E4B53S5DlM/видео.html&start_radio=1
Unfortunately it is recorded and is not live. I send you the following which is a live one where he sings in Kurdish language as he is from the Kurdish race of Iran and his mother language is Kurdish:

Hope you can enjoy them as much as I do or more. Best, Samira from Buenos Aires.
Majority of traditional persian musics like this one are literally poetry from Hafez, Rumi and other prominent poets that lived. They give these poetries rhythm and build musics around it. So the majority of lyrics go way back to year 1025 and before.
It's obviously section by section. If you look at ground in front of them, there are pages, and as far as I listened it was a romantic piece of poetry.
Great reaction btw :)
The instruments from left : Tar, Kamancheh, Santoor, Tanbur

This is voice 👍👍😍😍
That device is called “Santoor “ and what he’s holding in his fingers to play the Santoor is called “Mezraab”
Amaizing👏👏👏👏👏🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
Its a poem from Hafez a 14th century poet as one of the greatest Persian poets whose collection of works are in every Persian's home! (no exception!, This is true lol) His poems are mystical and romantic and as he was a man of God people take readings by his poem collection and its always accurate and to the point! Some of the lyrics here (not my translation)::
From intense weeping, my eye's pupil have sunk in blood
Look how people are in pain of your love
To the memory of your ruby and wine like intoxicated eye,
From the sadness cup the ruby wine that I drink is as blood
From the east which is the sun of your light
If it rises, my destiny would be prosperous...
The guy with digging thing! This instrument is called: SANTUR!
These poems, which are sung by Iranian artists, are taken from the great poets of Iran. Thank you for your choice and your reaction❤🙏
Matt you are amazing! Thanks for your reaction💙
It is a love song.
That instrument right side of lady is called Santoor
The instrument with little things hitting on it is Santoor, piano is made base on this instrument
A mystical music and song that takes the depths of being to the sky .It is very endearing 🥰🥰
Talking about the tar, the white part on the handle is made from camel's bone. The transparent part is the skin of unborn sheep or goats. There are parts that are made from wild goat's horns. In past the glue used to be made of houses.
Although I do not understand Persian, I was very affected. I do not know how Persian speakers would feel.❤
Every culture and region in the word can make relation and feel about their literature, culture and music because of their collective subconscious and training. Most of iranian people when they listen to their traditional music they feel spiritual emotions. Though most of young people has been changed their taste.
Iranian literature is mystical, romantic, ethical and epical and so iranian musics.
Awesome ❤TNX matt
Matt, you're amazing, I can believehow patiently you listen to this traditional music. Starting from the left, The first instrument is called Taar, the one next to it is Kamanche, then the 3rd one is Santour and of course the last one is Tonbak.
Since I don't have friends who listen to this kind of music, it's good for me to listen to you. Thanks for sharing my loneliness on this matter.
Thanks Matt 🙏I ❤️ iran
Have you ever trying mohsen yeganeh!
her hands in her ear. to hear her self like headphone. it really works. beautiful video. thanks 4 it.
hats off to u for staying on for half an hour to appreciate this ancient style of music. Aristotle praised it in his own day (while learning the language in order to understand the lyrics!) ur deeper than i thought .
btw/ multi-chamber string instruments mellow but also amplify the sound.
there are no improvisation allowed in a "destgah/raga" melodies. everything is regulated for thousands of years, as Indians also do, and Babylonians and Greeks did too.
and all the modulations come at the very end, where it is missing from this clip.
Excellent 👍🙏
Matt, first thanks for introducing the classical Iranian music to the world.
I would say some of Iranian Music beauty comes from the Beauty of the Persian Language.
I like your style, you do not stop the music for marketing talk. You stop for questions and explanations.
I do not know how many times I have listened to this concert since it came out about two month ago.
Sohraab pournaazeri sitting on right hand of the singer Ms. Sahar , he is only 37 and a genius composing musician; real hard working intellectual.
There is certain amount of improvisation ; But if look closely , Sohraab conducts the group with his eye contacts and head head movements.
See Moqaam
See Dastgaah
See Radif
This music starts from Kashkar in west China's Shinjiang and goes all the way to Spain and north to Caucasus , Ukraine and Romania. Note: Iranian music was also influenced by the Indian sub continent.
Greetings from California
4 instruments, Tar (Guitar type), Kamancha (voilon-like), Santoor (mustache guy hitting the strings.) and Tombak (drum-like). The guy with Kamancha is leading and I'm sure he has composed the whole thing, as you can clearly see, he is leading.
We have musical instruments duarr sitar rubab tar and various, this is Iranian (Tajik)
This music tells a story that the singer singing and the music changes according to the ups and downs of the story. like music of a movie.
What she sings is an elegy, not exactly elegy, it is about the pain of love but the love here is just not for humans, the true love is for god. the person who can truly fall in love that person do not care about religion and ...
Thanx for your reaction towards our beloved traditional music , I guess u are a musician, or at least familuar with musical structures and terms.
I'm learning to play setar, another homologue of Iranian Tar, and I,m also learning to sing iranian song, so as I'm really fond of our musical heritage, I'm also glad to see you being carried away by it, despite lack of knowledge about persian language.
As you rightly guessed it's a blend of spirituality and art . Our music invites you to think very very deeply about yourself and the world and after all, if I were to summarize it in one word, i would say it is all about love the essence of creation.
One tip about the poem she's reciting: He who was enforced in love , has nothing to do with belief or disbelief. What has the lover got to do with his own life? ( sorry for poor translation 😂) in fact , it means when in live, every thing except the beloved is ignored .
To enjoy the poem fully, a knowledge of persian will be essentual helpful.😊 Thanx again
Beutiful music . 🥰
Mr.matt .thanks
thanks matt for beautiful video l am lrani
That instrument, similar to violin, is called Kamancheh.
The flat instrument with strings called Santour and the other called Kamanche means little bow and arrows.
Instrument from left:
1: tar تار
2: Kamanche : کمانچه
3: santour or hammered dulcimer: search for Siamak Aghaei or Keyvan Ghazi for solo play of this beautiful instru
4: Tonbak تنبک
Dear Matt the name of the instruments are, Tar, Kamanche, Santoor and Donback. They are very old instruments. These are Iranian classic music and usually is to do with nature, love and love one, drinking wine and being merry, most lyrics come from very famous Iranian poets.
