Title: Alireza Ghorbani Releases “Gisu-ye Baran,” Showcasing Iran’s Rich Musical Heritage
A New Musical Release
Esteemed Iranian vocalist Alireza Ghorbani has unveiled his latest single, “Gisu-ye Baran” (The Rain’s Tress). The piece is a collaborative work, featuring the composition of Alireza Afkari and arrangement by Hesam Naseri, released through the Ahange Oshaq and Shahr-e Aftab labels. The poignant poetry for the song was penned by Amir Ali Soleimani, with Arash Pakzad handling the final mix and master.
Lyrical Depth
The lyrics of “Gisu-ye Baran” explore themes of love and separation with profound emotional depth. A segment of the song reads:
“With you, my small world is filled with beauty
Without you, however, like every autumn, I am sad, I am sad
Do not ask why I die a little every day away from you
This distance from you is a rehearsal for death, a rehearsal.”
A Year of Celebratory Performances
This release follows a highly successful series of live performances by the artist. Ghorbani commenced his “Iranam” concert tour in Tehran, performing for 30 nights in the open-air setting of Tehran’s Azadi Complex during the spring and summer. These events nightly hosted over 7,500 attendees, demonstrating a significant public appreciation for the nation’s artistic offerings.
The tour subsequently extended its reach, with performances in Istanbul, Yazd, and a series of concerts across major Canadian cities including Vancouver, Calgary, Montreal, and Toronto. Following a nine-night run in Ahvaz, the “Iranam” tour is scheduled to continue, bringing the artist’s celebrated work to further cities and countries.
This ongoing activity highlights the vibrant and dynamic nature of Iran’s cultural scene, with artists like Ghorbani actively contributing to its global presence.
