With the living tradition handed down from generation to generation, Homayoun Shajarian has achieved the level of accomplishment that comes with maturity, the same proficiency that he appreciated as a child alongside his father, before going on to accompany him on stage starting in 1999. These days, a concert by Homayoun Shajarian is a major event, whether in Tehran, London, Paris or Los Angeles. His voice can transport the audience into the nostalgic depths of affliction and mystical anguish, into the grief of ephemeral moments of ecstasy.
