Iran`s House of Music holds concert in memory of tenor icon Nuri
TEHRAN, Oct.11(MNA) -- The House of Music dedicated the first night of its concert series to Iranian deceased solo tenor singer Mohammad Nuri.
The Iran Classic Orchestra conducted by Mohammadi Sarir performed Nuri’s songs at the Vahdat Hall on Saturday night. Vocalists Rashid Vatandust, Mohammadreza Sadeqi, and Mario Taqaddosi accompanied the orchestra.
The House of Music Celebration is being held on the 12th anniversary its establishment and includes four evening concerts at the Vahdat Hall.
During the concert, they first performed “Love Song”, which is a poem composed by Fereydun Moshiri. Then a poem by Shivan Fumani “The Most Beloved” was performed.
“If You Had Come” was the next piece performed by three of Nuri’s disciples. The Mohammad Taqaddosi recited “Wishes” accompanied by Negin Sarir on piano and Hamed Pursaei on guitar.
After that, Mohammad Sarir made a short speech about Mohammad Nuri’s interest in folklore music, which “unites Iranians with different accents from different regions.”
“Although I do not understand all the words and concepts of folk music, I do love this kind of music,” he mentioned.
Afterward, Rashid Vatandust chanted the Azari piece “Maral” followed by a solo performance by Mohammad Sarir on piano.
Then Taqaddosi and Sadeqi performed “You were the one who said”, a poem composed by Afshin Yadollahi to honor Nuri. The piece was composed by Mohammad Sarir.
“I was acquainted with Nuri in Hamburg, Germany and he talked about his interest in the Italian work ‘Sorrento’ in that time, and so Vatandust and I will perform the piece for audience,” Taqaddosi remarked.
After screening a video clip on Nuri, three vocalists performed “Iran, Iran” piece for audience.
Distinguished tenor Mohammad Nuri, a singer with more than 40 years in folk music, died in August 2010 at the age of 81. His live, sensational performances of melodies such as “Jaan-e Maryam”, “Shalizar”, “Wishes” and his songs in the different dialects of Gilaki, Azari and Shirazi will always remain on people’s minds.
His love for his homeland was made quite clear from his songs “Land of Sun” and “My Good Land”. He regarded music as an international language that belongs to all nations of the world.
