A New Female-Hope for Persian Classical Music
9th Nov. 2012, Sepideh Raisssadat performed a concert in
Amsterdam; works by Hamid Motebassem, Ramin Azimian and Pejman Zahedian. More
than 250 people attended the event.
Unfortunately it was one of the last Persian music concerts at Tropentheater,
the most active venue of world music in The Netherlands. The activities of the
institute will be stopped in mid-2013 following the economic crisis in Europe.
Sepideh Raissadat sang nice and sweet. In a time that women are not allowed
to sing in public in Iran, Sepideh is a new female-hope for Persian vocal music.
She is pupil of Parissa, one of most celebrated female singers of classical
Persian music.
Watch a 2-min. video of Sepideh Raissadat concert in Amsterdam, accompanied
by Mezrab Ensemble; she sings "Zemzemeh-haa" [Whispers] by Hamid Motebassem on
lyrics by Hooshang Ebtehaj (Sayeh).
