Taylor & Francis Touraj Kiaras and Persian Classical Music An
Book SynopsisIn this book Owen Wright analyses a single recording of classical Persian music made by Touraj Kiaras, a distinguished singer, accompanied by four noted instrumentalists. The format of the recording is typical of a public concert performance, and thus includes instrumental compositions as well as a central exploration of vocal repertoire and technique. The analysis identifies salient structural features, whether of the individual components or of the whole, in a way accessible to the western reader, but it also takes account of the analytical metalanguage used in Persian scholarship, and includes consideration of the relationship between music and poetry. It is important to note that it is also guided by the perceptions of the performer, whose input and responses to questions have significantly influenced the enterprise. To avoid the dryly impersonal, the analysis is also framed by an introduction which combines a biographical sketch of Touraj Kiaras with a survey of the twentieth-centTrade Review�Touraj Kiaras and Persian Classical Music stands favourably alongside Wright's other foundational Middle Eastern Studies as a refreshingly performance-focused foray into the increasingly cross-cultural character of twenty-first-century musical analysis.� Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society 'Wright�s exceptionally lucid explanations of the terms generally used in discussions of Persian classical music (26-35) would alone make the book a valuable resource for teachers... Wright also reproduces a few of Massoudieh�s notations with modifications that facilitate comparison with his own. His flexible and inventive approach to notation is one of the book�s many strengths.' Ethnomusicology '... the [CD] recording really is superb ... [Wright] presents some highly original and persuasive ideas... It cuts an intelligent swathe through current debates about the analysis of non-Western music. And it will persuade many of those wedded to anthropological and context-oriented approaches in ethnomusicology, in what is - once again - a rather polemicized environment, that there are decent arguments to be made for an analytical engagement with non-Western music, and not just reaction or retrenchment. This admittedly quirky but deeply thoughtful book must, in these terms, be judged a considerable success.'
