Seven hundred years after his poetry swept the Persian world, Molavi - better known in the West as Rumi - can still be heard within the lush rhythms and phrasings of Persia's passionate musical tradition. On Through Eternity, Iran's acclaimed Dastan Ensemble brings together an all-star gathering of master musicians in an unprecedented evening of virtuoso vocal and instrumental performances. Dastan has already thrilled standing-room-only audiences at music festivals and concerts across the globe.
Now, in six soulful tracks, they weave a brilliant web of ethereal songs in homage to Molavi – an ecstatic net of jewels that reflects both the allure of Persia's musical past and a visionary excursion into its future. Liner notes include complete English-language song translations.
