Haj Ghorban Soleimani - Plectrums of Love - 2 / 2

Haj Ghorban Soleimani was born in 1920 in Aliabad, a small village in the north of Ghuchan in northern Khorasan. Of Turkish origin, he has lived all his life in Aliabad whose inhabitants are in majority Turkish speaking. A musician as well as a farmer, capable of singing in Persian, Turkish, and Kurdish, Soleimani is the perfect example of the bakhshi. He is one of the last great living bards. He learned his art from his father, who, in turn, was taught by his own father. True to tradition, Soleimani has been the teacher of his only son Alireza. The sons of Alireza, in turn, already hold promise despite their youth and follow diligently the teachings of their grandfather and father.
He died on the 20th of January 2008 : God bless him : hoo !

A great man who lived and died in abject poverty. This is appreciation of a Turkish mugham musician Persian/Islamic style. They do not mention he was a turk and an expert in Khorasani Tukish mugham. They conceal this fact to use him as a propaganda tool for their sick chauvinistic ideology.He was virtually unknown in his homeland (they new him in France though!!!). What a devious people.

but, ... who are THEY ???

[rostam69]

They!! are not the best people in the world , They suppres and torture their own people, They, do anything to survive even They kill their own. But those are the people who took him to France and let him go and play every where. They are very unpredictable!!

[rizepor]

They are not unpredictable, they just are very clever too ... and so more dangerous.

@AZeRBaIJaNIeR How is it Azerbaijani when it is Torkaman from Khorasan? Last I checked Azeries didn’t use the Dotar in their music.
