روزگاری در ایرانزمین چنین ابرمردانی بودند و هنوز هم هستند که رد گوشه زخمه ایشان هزاردستانی بوده و است.
دریغ که روزگار چنین شد که بانگ سازانی پلشت مانند علیزاده و دیگر ننگ های روزگار نام خود را نوازنده گذاشته اند.
ای دریغ

Esmail Navab Safa (1924 -- March 8, 2005) was born in Kermanshah, Iran. His actual and complete name is Esmail Navab Safavi. He changed his last name in the late 1940s, replacing "Safavi" the suffix of his family name with "Safa" his pen name. This was at least partially due to the infamous acts of a political assassin who had called himself Navab Safavi, even though his real name was Mojtaba Mirlohi.
Esmail was a single child born in to a Isfahani / Tehrani family. His father Seyed Morteza Navab came from a prominent Isfahani family, belonged to a Soufi spiritual order and had studied French at "La Alliance". In the 1920s Iranian Customs was under Belgian control and they employed French speaking Iranians. In this way Navab Safa's father, Morteza had become an employee of the customs and moved to the border province of Kermanshah. The well-known 19th-century poet Neshat Isfahani was Navab Safa's great-uncle.
Navab Safa's mother, Khanom Koochak and her sister were members of the educated Bassiri-Gharb family from Tehran. When Reza Shah made women's education compulsory, the Bassiri sisters who were employed by the ministry of Education moved to Kermanshah. Navab Safa's mother, Mrs. Bassiri, as she was known, opened one of the first elementary schools in Kermanshah dedicated to the education of young women. Navab Safa's aunt also an educator, ran a girl's high school in Kermanshah. Navab Safa lost his father at the young age of seven.
Young Esmail was first initiated in to the world of music by having a private tutor teaching him the violin. Later he learned the playing of the traditional Persian instrument Seh Tar through self-teaching. He finished elementary school in Kermanshah with fellow prominent classmates Feraidoon Hafezi (later a Tar master) and Ata Behmanesh (a legendary sports broadcaster). He continued his education in Gorgan and later at Isfahan University.

Ahmad Ebādi [1] (1906 -- 1992)[2] (Persian: احمد عبادی) was an Iranian musician and setar player. Born in Tehran, he was a member of the most extraordinary family of Iranian music. Ahmad's father, Mirza Abdollah, is arguably the most influential figure in Persian traditional music, and his paternal uncle, Mirza Hossein Gholi, is also well-known for his mastery in playing the tar. Ahmad's paternal grandfather, Ali Akbar Farahani, was also a talented musician.
Ahmad started learning music at early age. At the age of seven, he was able to play Tombak to accompany his father. Unfortunately he lost his father soon, but continued his education with his sisters especially Moloud Khanom. He became one of the best setar players of all time. For years he played on Iranian radio especially in a program called Golha, produced by Davood Pirnia. Ebadi had a unique style in playing the setar. He also invented a variety of different tunings for setar.
He died in 1992 and is buried in Emamzadeh Taher Cemetery in Karaj.
