• Your community is the soil, and you are the seed. No matter how vigorous the seed is, if the soil does not provide nourishment, the seed will die … A good community is needed to help us grow, to nourish the seeds of growth and enlightenment … These are words from Thich Nhat Hanh, author and teacher.

Bahar gatherings and Bahar Society may be such a nourishing soil and such a community for us who share the desire for growth and transformation. What do you see Bahar Society as? Come share! Come create!

*** Mandy will share her world of stars and astrology…

 
 
*** And Joseph and Farahnaz will share experiences and pictures from a magical trip to China,

 
… Yin-Yang village and what a 'ba gua' is for creating balance, abundance, and happiness …
 
 
… 1,200 year old Ling yin Temple and more…

Bahar gatherings are free to Bahar members and $5 for non members. Membership to Bahar is $60/individual, $90/family.

DEDICATED TO TRANSFORMATION

 

 

Greetings.

Next Thursday, Mastan Ensemble, after successful concerts in Tehran,
bring their "Forbidden Journey" tour to Disney Hall (July 3), and
then to San Diego (July 12).

An accomplished ensemble of 8 young players of Persian classical
instruments, Mastan is guided by 28-year old multi-talented Homay,
who composes the words and music, and sings. Homay's lyrics offer a
subtle, yet current, social commentary in a context of Persian
classical poetry, which makes Mastan Ensemble's music so appealing
to their Persian-speaking fans.

Good morning, our calendar was spammed with the "$5000" message and
several reminders were sent out to our members. I've modified the
calendar settings so this kind of annoyance will not happen again.

Happy Noruz!

Cal State Fullerton Performing Arts Center Presents

Namaad Ensemble

8 p.m. Friday, March 14, 2008

Recital Hall, CSUF Performing Arts Center
800 N. State College Blvd, Fullerton

The rhythmic and melodic subtlety of this Persian classical quartet melds
ornamented vocals with haunting string melodies and delicately driving
percussion. Known for quiet demeanor and understated interaction, the
Namaad Ensemble utilizes the setar (lute), kamanche (fiddle), an array
of hand percussion, and the rarely heard ancient queychak (dual-box
fiddle). This impressive quartet offers, in an intimate musical setting,
the modern and classical poetry of Iran in the traditional dastgah
(modal) system of the country.

Dear members,

I published some words, a nice Photo of Nayyer Azam Rumi as well the
both side of a rare
record of her in the following page:

http://santoori.com/html/rumi.html

I never heard this song elsewhere. I liked it very much, so that I
decided to publish it in my website. I hope you will enjoy it.

Though I would like to thank dear Mr. Amir Mansour because of
publishing the nice photo of Nayyer-Azam in his site.

Additionally I edited my site map in order to find pages much more
easier than the past. Please use this map when you want to find pages
easier especially regarding to Musicians of the Past and free Persian
music download.
