Mazda Publishers, for the first time, is proudly presenting this valuable oral musical tradition with the highest recording quality possible on a set of 5 compact discs(CDs) performed by setâr virtuoso, Dariush Tala'i. The recordings were made at the University of Washington in Seattle in 1992 while Mr. Tala'i was a Visiting Professor in the School of Music. NOTE: Also available along with a book of musical notations written by Mr. Tala'i under the title of “Traditional Persian Art Music: The Radif of Mirza Abdollah.” For more information refer to the “Catalog” section of this web site.
