Noite Persa 29 Ago

An Afghan musician and composer living in Portugal, he brings a show filled with his own compositions, playing the magical metal-keyed instrument, the Santur: the soul of Persian music. 🌌🇮🇷

Beyond the shared Persian language, Afghanistan and Iran also share this iconic metal-keyed instrument played with small wooden hammers. 🎶🇦🇫🇮🇷

🎧SHABGARD IRANI Translated from Persian, Shabgard Irani means something like 'Iranian Night Owl'. It is the alter ego of Lisbon-based musician and producer Guy from 1990, focused on Persian music and surrounding regions. After a long trip to Iran, he brings new oriental influences to his city. 🌍🎧

An exotic blend of traditional Persian rhythms, transcendent oriental sounds, Persian pop, and classical instruments from the region, often combining them with electronic beats, especially broken beats, with rhythms similar to traditional ones, wrapping the dance floor in an out-of-the-ordinary experience. 🎶

The energy and dynamism of Break Beat, UK Bass, Jungle, and UK Garage electronics, coming from Shabgard Irani's London influences, are sounds that fit with some surprise, but also naturally, with the unique rhythms of Persian and Middle Eastern percussion. 🕌

Persian Night is a journey through the regions of the ancient Persian empire 🇮🇷🇸🇾🇹🇷🇮🇶🇦🇫🇪🇬🇵🇰🇮🇳

From Turkey to India, from the Caucasus to Babylon, passing through Arabia and the entire Middle East, with Iran as the center. From traditional music to pop and electronics. 🕌
