On Loving Persian Music and Passing on the Love: Baha’i youth authors Wikipedia articles

You don’t have to be Persian to love Persian music. This American-born Persian Baha’i has been investigating his Persian roots, including Persian roots music. -gw

I was born in Austin, Texas to Persian parents. In the last few years, I have paid some attention to my roots and have discovered how rich the Persian culture is. While I continue to love and appreciate western music and literature, I feel this new-found knowledge of Persian culture, literuatre, and music has expanded my horizons immensely. I am now a die-hard fan of Persian music, both pop and traditional (Sonati), from singers as early as the era of Badizadeh, Delkash, Banan, and Marzieh (not to mention the legendary pianists Javad Maroufi and Morteza Mahjoubi) to present-day pop singers like Pouya and Shadmehr Aghili. Aside from the few I just mentioned, some of my other favorite Persian singers are Shahrokh, Dariush Eghbali, Shajarian, Googoosh, Giti, Ramesh, Morteza, Moein, Shahram Solati, Fereydoon Farrokhzad, and Fereydoon Foroughi.
