On August 16, 2009, Homay will be at The Walt Disney Concert Hall in LA with his operetta called "Moses and The Shepherd." The story has been adapted from A. M. Bakhtiari's "The Mystery of The Mystics." Music, Lyrics, and design are all by Homay based on three characters, Moses, The Shepherd, and The Story teller in 16 scenes.
The Music will be performed by the Los Angeles philharmonic orchestra mixed with Persian instrument with Shahrdad Rohani as the conductor. Homay will be the shepherd, Ms. Homa Sarshar will be the story teller, and another Persian (pre-revolution) singer, Soli, plays the role of Moses.
This would be the first time that an Iranian Opera will be performed at one of the biggest concert halls in the world.
The second part of the concert (only at Disney Hall) consists of Homay's new love songs that he will perform with L.A. Philharmonic orchestra under the direction of Mr. Rohani.
In all existing versions of the story, it ends when Moses comes down from the mountain to bring God's message to the shepherd that God loves shepherd's prayers in any shape or language but Homay, here, has changed the ending with the shepherd's response to Moses.
I have no fear of Myths, nor Satan
Not of Blasphemy, or Judgment
I have no fear of (Hell) fires or despair
Destructions today or tomorrow
Or drinking from the jar of wine
I know you better than you think you know God
And I know God better than I know you
God is removed from everything
He doesnt even want to BE God
A tool for your purpose , he doesnt want to be
A mirror of your horror he doesnt wish to be
I fear Him not
Nor fear my own thoughts
The only fear I have in this world
Is if I trouble a single Soul
I am not at war with anyone
Nor anyone at war with me
Homay is hoping that one day he can perform this opera in Iran.
Although, this opera has been scheduled only for L.A., he has received other invitation from other promoters from NY, Washington, London, and Paris to perform it there too.

Homay and the Mastan group, will perform their new program called "Muddy Waters" in their grand tour in the US and Canada this year
Homay believes it is such a big honor for him to be working with Shardad Rohai.
We hope that the end result will be as great for Homay as it was for Yani
Getting ready for Europe
2009
"At the moment you put me in the grave drunk, hide a jar of wine under my shroud too.
So I can drink of this wine on my my to "hell"
Then plant grapevine on my grave
So at the moment I meet with other residents of "ell" (DOOZAKHIAN), I would have a jar of wine for them as a gift.
As much as I could not drink of this clear wine on Earth, I can make it up when I am sitting down with "Doozakhian."
Nothing I know except the the tavern, the wine-bearer, the jar of wine
My life is based on "wine" (drinking) and happiness
since I am burning in the fire of 'LOVE" like "HOMAY,"
So I am not afraid of the fire of hell
The moment you put me in the grave drunk, hide a jar of wine under my shroud too.
So I can drink of this wine on my my to "hell"
Then plant grapevine on my grave"
