042. Tarz-e Teymur – Farid Elhami (Millennium of Tanbur)

One of the Haqqani (sacred) maqams from after the Pardivar period. Seyed Ezzat Yari and Seyed Khalil Alinejad play this maqam on the tanbur in an unusual tuning. Its melody resembles the maqams of the Azeri-speaking regions. In this maqam the first and second strings are tuned to G (sol) and the vakhan (third) string to B-flat (si bemol).

From the collection Millennium of Tanbur (Hezareh-ye Tanbur); tanbur and vocals: Farid Elhami.
