About the Piece:

“Bahr” is a composition inspired by traditional melodies of Turkish music, reimagined and arranged for the qanun. The piece presents a soft and intimate dialogue between the qanun and the udu (clay pot drum), creating a calm, natural, and flowing atmosphere.

By blending musical colors of Iranian and Turkish traditions, “Bahr” invites the listener on a journey through deep emotions and timeless musical currents, where melodic waves flow gently and seamlessly like a sea of feelings.
