this is actually persian classic music, and often are philosopical texts or poems with deep meanings, hard to translate...the style of singing calls Tahrir, which has a quite long history..The original idea was to use the voice.. Iran's classical art music is vocal based, and the vocalist plays a crucial role, as he or she decides what mood to express and which dastgah relates to that mood. In many cases, the vocalist is also responsible for choosing the lyrics. If the performance requires a singer, the singer is accompanied by at least one wind or string instrument, and at least one type of percussion. They believe back then Tahrir was created by observing how birds sing..Homayoon Shajarian is the son of grand master of Persian Tahrir, Mohamedreza Shajarian, who died few months ago...Often singer learns years by being student of a master (the relation between the master and student is based on respect and being humble) and Homayoon had of course with his father a very good teacher to learn from

The lyrics is a poem. Was written 800 years ago.

Finally you're watching Homayoun. Son of persian traditional music master Mohamad Reza Shajarian. Hope you like it. Love from Iran.

Persian music is so beautiful! As an Indian to me Persian music seems characterised by this flowing rhythm like a rushing or rolling waterfall. Indian rhythm sounds to me more like earthy like boulders falling down a mountain with more breaks, and repetition. World music implores one to learn more about fellow humanity!

Persian music has 12 systems as western has only 4. What you hear can be in half, quart, 1/8th, or 16th of a note where you get lost in the music as you most probably are not familiar with. It takes years of practice to be able to sing like that. It is not just making a sound out of your throat but the whole buddy must become one in order to make such an amazing voice. You need to go all the way and to the limit of your breath, diaphragm, throat, stomach, back, mouth, nose, and a whole lot more.

Maam, that guy sitting there is a singing machine, give him anything you want and he wont come short of breath

As an iranian person who studied music a bit and back then dragged to western musics, I can surely say persian classic techniques are phenomenal and hard to reach even for iranians. I should say that wherever you go, roots are always attached😁 Persian music richness is quite more understandable for me now. As you perfectly mentioned it's just related to enormously practicing, not a lot practicing I mean a lot a lot a lot practicing. Like you're breaking up your larynx down completely and building it up again for preparing it to do so. While lyrics translations could be done somehow but lyrics' meaning and interpreting is very very hard to do. It needs knowledge of linguistics to exchange its deep meaning to another language, probably need of old philosophical version of English including more Latin vocabs. For example, when I read the interpretation of Attar's poetry in English it was hard for me understand it in English. I wanted to test my English knowledge and I failed 😁 and also you're right some sound in the lyrics are not quite a word. It's being heard in persian classic music a lot. Some are extending word's sound in different ways, some are being done because of the meaning of the lyrics cuz it creates some kinds of emotions, some are also is warbling sound(s). This kind of warbling is just for persian classic music. Thanks for commenting on this performance i really enjoyed it ❤🎶

what you are hearing here is one of the legendary voices ever lived in history of Persian's and Iranian's music, you should listen to his father's voice... your soul will be flying, even if you don't understand the lyrics!

This performance is the original Iranian music and the technique that you liked is tahrir, which is one of the most difficult and beautiful music techniques in the world, which of course exists in Iranian music. Of course, it is also performed in Azerbaijani and Arabic music, but it is complete. There is the most kind of tahrir in Iranian music

The lyric is by "Jalal Al-din Mohammad Balkhi" or "Molavi" or "Molana" in Iran, known in west as Rumi. His poems are so musical

Ich bin ein fan von dir und ebenfalls Iraner aus Deutschland 🇩🇪🇮🇷 danke Nina

We grew up listening to this kind of music and reading the literature. It gave and gives us a sense of melancholy and loss (specially if you are among the diaspora). One side effect is of course you can hardly listen to anything else except the best of the classics next to the Persian music.

The technique used in those long phrases is called Tahrir. You need to do it by fast physical movements in your larynx. The way to start is this: quickly moving between your regular voice and falsetto; back and forth, back and forth, ... But I guess this is only the start of training. And the piece is using Rumi's poem.

what a performance, watching this masterpiece for a million times and every time more surprised. Homayoun you are our treasure

I love Iranian classic music ❤️

Iran has thousands of years history alongside its music. Where shall one start to study and where is its end? A brilliant piece of summary can be seen in Maestro Mohammadreza Shajarian's works.

The meaning of this song is more beautiful than its musical aspects😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️

Homayoun has one of the most beautiful voices In the world❤️

Thanks for your reaction ❤️🙏 The lyrics is a poem from “Divan e Shams” written by Rumi also known as Mawlānā famous Sufi, theologian and poet who lived in 13th century. There are english translations of this book..the lyric is theosophical and is about being in love with God..it’s not easy to understand what Rumi meant from the lyrics without knowing and studying eastern theosophy.

Homayoun is a very professional singer. If you listen to his songs you will develope yourself at a much higher level. He is a master class. No persian can match him today. I'll try to send you the translation of this song

Homayoun is one of the greatest voices in Persian music. He has been singing since he was very young. And his voice actually makes me fly out of this world 😍

1st comment... thank you so much 👏🏻 Homayun is an amazing singer If you wanna see more of him, react and analyze ( Homayun - chera rafti)

this music takes you to the moon, love from Iceland

Iranian love you🇮🇷👉❤️

I am sure that Homayun and his father(grand master) take every on to infinity and beyond!!!

His dad is like the king of the music!

Proud of Iranian music by Master Shajarian🌷🌷🌷🌷

Translating the lyrics of this song is very difficult because some words can not be fully translated, you have to be Persian to understand the beautiful lyrics of this music

it's so great and interesting to hear a professional opinion from a foreign listener. looking forward to more reactions:)

the luric is something like "make your heart become one with mine" Del means heart "sing for my love get my heart busy with the lovely sounds of you" I am the love, so just come to me and be one with that heart.

Homayun is such a legend. I'm so proud. And also his songs has deep deep meaning not everyone can get it. The lyrics are from Persian poems.

Great poetry from Mollaanna known as Roomi in the western world. Hommayoon is a master in Persian classical music

Sanam is a god/goddess who is worshipped. A term of endearment for the beloved. Sanama means (oh (my) sanam) adressing the beloved, asking her to allow her heart to be one with his heart . So literal translation of the refain would be: English translation: Ba man sanama del yek dele kon (With me o beloved one* , share your heart *) Gar sar nanaham, vangah gele kon (complain me if i didn't lay my life down) Ey motrebe del zaan naghmeye khosh (O singer of the heart , with that pleasant song) In maghze mara por mash`ghale kon (fill (this) my mind) See pare be kaf dar chele shodi (with thirty Parted * in your hand you went to "Cheleh"*) see pare manam tarke chele kon (i am thirty Parts , leave the forty) The line is from a poem by Rumi. An Iranian poet who lives around 700_800 years ago The guy next to him is also Sohrab Pournazeri and the instrument is called Kamanche.

Basically, Tahrir, has originated from Nightingale singing, which iranian classical music has evolved from. It represents the voice of the nature

you are just noticing the mastery of voice and artful music. If you can understand the amazingly valuable and gentle lyric, the you can appreciate it in a real way

Can I just say you're voice, accent and explanation is a lovely mixture that's making this already amazing performance an even nicer experience. Thanks for this reaction. 👌 Nice channel.

His father is also king of voice and breath controlling there

Homayoun and his musicians are truly the one and only...outstanding...

That was absolutely beautiful!!! Thanks for sharing!

Homayoun is son of Mohammad Reza Shajarian and that was the best singer in Iran and a legend. Mohammad Reza died few month ago but he has his powerful legacy. And his son Homayoun is one of the best in Iran. Thank you for listeting to our musics and our culture❤🔥🇮🇷

I love that performance. I think you gonna like Mehsen Namjoo song "Sanama" and song "Zolf" as well. Those are couple good performances too.

درود برشما. عالی هستید. خوشحالم که یک هنرمند ایرانی را انتخاب کردید. موفق باشید🌹🙏

As other people already mentioned, this is Persian classical music. The composer, Sohrab, is the one the youngest composers in Iran. The lyric of this song is a famous Ghazal by Rumi, and you can find its translation by googling "rumi ghazal 2095".

The brief translation of the poem : "Oh my lover, help your heart and mine, to be in one orchestra beating "

this is the most worthy reaction video to watch. thank you Nina.

Both the music and the singer are SUPER great 👍🏻 I wish I could participate in his concerts...

Shajarian's family are in our hearts of Iranian people ♥

Oh boy. Homayoun Shajarian is unique. Nobody on earth can ever reach him. The instrumentalist's name is "Sohrab Pournazeri".

Love love from persia🇮🇷

I’m so glad finally a good vocal coach reacted to homayoun. I always comment about these reactors reacting to his voice because he’s something else but you’re actually the first legit vocal coach reacting. ♥️

So many thanks Nina🤩 Love from Iran❤️🇮🇷

Iran is a multi-ethnic country and thats the most beautiful thing about Iran , In shajarian's musics you see the power of the voice of a persian + the power of a kurd's hand ( sohrab pour nazeri thr next guy to homayoun and his music composer) , Kurds and persians are brothers ethnicly

He's from iran me too ✋ and I'm so happy ❤❤❤

8:34 whole system for such techniques is called "goosheh" and that technique itself is called "tahrir" .

Homayoun's father is the greatest master of Iranian traditional singing

The special vibration in persian or azerbajan songs is called "tahrir" and its based on broken notes technique.

Such an excellent song to get introduced to persian traditional music... The technics are so different and maybe it's time to learn this kind of singing

He is singing one of Rumi's very famous poems.

very well said. that was something "else"

A beautiful piece of music. Thanks

Thanks for analysis Nina

Humayon is amazing singer. His Tahrir is unique. Thanks for this 😍😍😍

Lady, you know music!!! Persian music is very complicated and you already got some part of it!!!!!! My heart skit a bit as I saw your beautiful guitar falling over and how you caught it on time!!! Thank you so much

thanks for your reaction Love from IRAN❤

Poetry by Rumi . This singer is a legend . Thank you

I recommend listening to MohammadReza Shajarian songs too. those are good introductions of Iranian culture . one of his best songs is ''Gholame Chashm''

The 15 second long piece of vocal mastery is called "CHAH CHAH '.

Thank you very much for your attention to Iranian music. In traditional Iranian music, musicians and singers respond like birds responding to each other's songs. 🙏🥰❤️

homayon and his father shajaryan are on next level of singing they are the voices of Iran

Usually I listen to American metal music but... this man is really great and I can't resist it I mean not listen to this talented man. And hey I downloaded your music called Not perfect now and that is intresting. good job

The technique that he was using it, is “Tahrir” .

I love your reacts! You react sooo profeshional!

Amazing ❤️❤️❤️

He's been practicing whole his life with the best vocal teacher of Iran

I'm not sure if you were aware of him or not. But you chose the most talented vocal in Iran to listen to! Great review 👌🏼

Lyrics are ancient. A 800 years old Persian romance poem which the poet portrayed how a lover finds out to find himself after falling in love with someone. Sth like: everyone has a divinity inside but only you need to know what love is and so so many other explanations about the lyrics . Thanks for the reaction and don’t worry about the guitar 😅 It happens

that's right there the finest wine of Persian classical music u can find

I was totally searching for your reaction on this song! (Vocal coach😉)

You know Nina... You went straight to the point! Homayoun is a talented vocalist... I think you should also listen to Habib, Alireza Ghorbani, Shahram Nazeri etc... You'll become really surprised and of course mesmerizes :))

Thank you. I love homayoun shagarian

Shajarian the legend persian

Powerful voice smooth sounds the same as the music video 👏

Grand Master #Mohammadreza_Shajarian from Iran

Hi, I love your reaction please do more.... your analysis and how is explained keeps me watching this clip over and over. The wording is about love of creator and created.

You can also watch the official music video. That is really interesting too.

Homayoun Shajarian 😍 wow... He is awesome.

This piece from homayoun was too soon for you to listen to becone familiar with Persian traditional music , you have to listen to his slower songs first 😅.

Such a good reaction❤🌸🏵🌻

His father was one of the most famous traditional Persian singer in Iran, therefore he had the best coach in his life!

جانم ایران .....عشق ایران ...فدایه وطنم

So sooooo butiful Amazing, quic voice

Homayoun❤ he's just great

love this clip...

The technique you refered to as "cry on the voice" is actually a high level technique called warbling (tahrir). Basically you crack your voice on purpose multiple times per second to create that effects. In other words you're swotching to false to sound and normal sound so quick to create that effect. Again it's a high level technique and could take years of practice to be able to do it that quickly

NINA WE LOVED YOUR REACTION PLEASE GO FOR MORE PERSIAN MUSIC

the lyric from( molana) , he said make my 1000 hurt to one hurt! kind mysticism, he asking around the true! hope injoy

The instrument player’s name is “Sohrab Pournazeri”.

It's one of Persian poem From Molana

You have chosen the greatest singer of Persia Land

The trill technique is performed between two notes, but the TAHRIR is a variation from the source note and passing through several notes and finally reaching the destination note
