Simin Etesami - Persian Songs

Review by Antonio Mecca

Persian Songs by Simin Etesami is a beautiful album that showcases the talents of this Iranian singer-songwriter. The album features a collection of traditional Persian songs that are given a modern twist with Etesami's unique style and voice.

The album opens with the hauntingly beautiful track "Gol-e Sangam" which sets the tone for the rest of the album. Etesami's voice is soft and delicate, yet powerful enough to convey the emotion and depth of the lyrics.

Throughout the album, Etesami's vocals are accompanied by a range of traditional Persian instruments such as the tar, santur, and daf, which add to the authenticity of the music. The arrangements are simple yet effective, allowing the focus to remain on Etesami's voice and the poetry of the songs.

One standout track on the album is "Mehrab-e Ghalandar", a love song that showcases Etesami's vocal range and ability to convey the passion and intensity of the lyrics. The track is accompanied by a beautiful arrangement of the tar and santur that perfectly complements Etesami's vocals.
