Classical Iranian music is based on radif’s (old melodies) and numerous organised dastgāh (scales) to create melodic circles of suspense, interest and mystique. In this concert, Mehdi Rostami (setar) & Adib Rostami (tombak) explore them with a contemporary approach, presenting music from their debut album, Melodic Circles (picked as one of the top 10 albums of 2018 by Songlines). Plus harpist & vocalist Tara Jaff performing ancient Kurdish pieces.

Melodic Circles will be available on KPlayer from Wednesday 29th July at 7pm for a limited time only.
