	Hossein Alizadeh
		When I received a copy of Alizadeh's Neynava concerto (Kereshmeh Records, 1994) recently, I didn't expect much.
		Alizadeh, born in Tehran in 1951, has performed extensively throughout the U.S., Europe and Asia.
		He is considered, I found out (and not surprisingly), by many as one of the most important figures of contemporary Iranian music.

	Sobhgahi - Hossein Alizâdeh - Song Listings
		Alizadeh is listed among the musicians and so are three from the ubiquitous Kamkars ensemble.
		To some extent Alizadeh compensates for this with very strongly characterized instrumental writing, as in the powerful instrumental prelude of part two (which does lead to a good vocal solo).
		Overall, Sobhgahi is the weaker brother to Alizadeh's Raz-o-Niaz.

	iranian.com: Music, Hossein Alizadeh
		This was originally from the album Endless Vision, a live recording with Hossein Alizadeh and Jivan Gasparyan on stage in the Niavaran Palace outdoor venue in Tehran (Sept.4-6, 2003) with more than 12,000 spectators.
		Alizadehs arrangement is amazing, and Afsaneh Rasaee's emotional singing stands out even though she can't sing solo on stage in a live performance in Iran.
		Mohammad Reza Shajarian (vocals), Hossein Alizadeh (tar), Kayhan Kalhor (kamancheh) and Homayoun Shajarian (tonbak and vocals) performed magnificently during their European and North American tour in 2000 and 2001.

		Hossein Alizadeh is recognized as one of Iran's foremost musicians.
		He is a composer and also a virtuoso on the Persian tar (six strings) and the sehtar (four strings).
		Since Azeri and Persian music share very deep historical roots, we invited Alizadeh, who is of Azeri descent, to reflect upon his perception of their similarities and differences.

	Amazon.com: NeyNava/Song of Compassion: Music: Hossein Alizadeh (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		It can't be but because of passion and love for his rich musical inheritance that Hossein Alizadeh can bring hereto hidden voices from traditional Persian music to shine as the center pieces of a complex composition in which he invites the Western system as a universal "goushe".
		Alizadeh goes a long way toward showing that by "witnessing" the Persian through the formalized, often linear western system, we can dust off lost insights and express musical ideas that truly have no edge, no border, nor fronts.
		Hossein Alizadeh is the greatest living instrumentalist of Persian traditional music and this work is one of his greatest compositions.

	Hossein Alizâdeh : NeyNava/Song of Compassion - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		NeyNava and Song of Compassion are two pieces by leading Persian composer Hossein Alizadeh that have little in common except that 1.
		It represents a meeting of East and West, not only in the instruments but in the writing: Traditional Middle Eastern music does not use harmony or counterpoint but instead relies on very complex and usually improvised development of melodic figures for its interest.
		In NeyNava Alizadeh has attempted to work out an explicit harmony based on the intervals of those traditional Persian figures.

	WORLD MUSIC REVIEW: Master of Persian Classical Music By Rajna Klaser (Hossein Alizadeh, Mohammed Reza Shajarian, ...
		After filling the European auditoriums for the past decade or so, four Persian masters considered to be the treasures of contemporary classical music of Iran, finally reached the Californian coast in their long awaited first American tour.
		Kayhan Kalhor on kemanche, a Persian spike fiddle, Hossein Alizadeh on tar, a Persian lute, and Homayoun Shajarian on tombak, a goblet-shaped drum, matched Mohammad Reza Shajarian's mastery with their technical virtuosity and phrasing.
		Their playing was filled with well-controlled intricate ornamentation and sudden dynamic changes characteristic of the Persian performing tradition, never losing either the axis of the dastgah or the inner pulse in the improvisation, always retaining perfect shape and symmetry in their melodic contours.

	Hossein Alizadeh, Madjid Khaldadj + The Planet + 8/8/2002
		Hossein Alizadeh plays the tar, throughout: a lute with six wire strings & 25 frets.
		We'll also hear selections from a recording made three years earlier, on which Hossein Alizadeh plays three kinds of lutes, and Madjid Khaladj the daf (a large frame drum) as well as the tombak.
		Contrary to what is commonly believed in the West, it is NOT impossible to find an active, Iranian-resident female singer: "SAZ-E-NO" features the vocal artistry of AFSANEH RASSA'I, who regularly works with Hossein Alizadeh.

	FOR- Fellowship Magazine -An Africana View of Progressive American Islam
		In the reaction to the Iranian hostage crisis of 1979 and the seizure of dictatorial power by a faction of the Shi`i clerical hierarchy, nearly everyone forgot that the Iranian Revolution—from its inception to its successful ouster of the Shah—was broadly popular and overwhelmingly nonviolent.
		Grand Ayatollah Hossein Ali Montazeri is perhaps the highest-ranking Shi`i cleric alive.
		Born in 1922 in the city of Najaf Abad, Iran, he achieved the highest scholarly degree available to Shi`is at the astonishingly youthful age of twenty-four.

		The 14-piece orchestra, the Shayda and Aref Ensemble, is directed by the composer, Hossein Alizadeh, who also plays the tar and setar (Middle Eastern lutes).
		Each of the major parts starts with an orchestral prelude after which the singer makes his entrance.
		Alizadeh observes the traditional rules of Middle Eastern composition whereby there is no harmony or counterpoint, but he stretches those rules to allow pedal notes, variations on melodies, and elaborate ornamentation.
