Alireza Afkari was born in Iran in 1977. He is one of the most important and influential musicologists since the Iranian Revolution. He has spent years studying the rich tradition of ancient Iranian literature and working with many great voices of Iranian singers to create lasting works in various genres. Given the restrictions on publishing his work in Iran and the intensification of international sanctions against Iran, he has now decided to release his album "Roots" internationally. In this work, he draws on the principles and "roots" of Iranian music and presents diverse, nuanced perspectives on an international perspective on Iranian music. Perhaps the most remarkable aspect of this album is that it was recorded in Iran itself with local Iranian musicians, while mixing and mastering took place in Germany. It's to be expected that Alireza will continue to enrich the international music community in a colorful and diverse way in the future.
