As the science and art of music have been in constant change due to various controversies throughout history, Iranian classical music has also been changed normally. Iranian music, in which the pre-Islamic "rah" instruction was applied, was replaced by the "advar" and "maqam" systems after Islam. This operating system has been changed again and is now known as "destgah". The reasons for the transition of the "Heft (seven) Destgah" system, its historical process, the concept and why it was seven have not been met with any clear explanation in the musical tracts and historical sources. The results of the work of musicologists and researchers of our time also have not been given a definitive explanation. According to our research on Destgah, the oldest explanation is found in Osman Dede's Persian verse Rabt-ı Tagyîrât-ı Mûsikî, written on the subject of music. Osman Dede quoted the system applied in Iran with the phrase "Heftgane" (seven). In this article, after the information about Iranian music and the "destgah" system, Osman Dede's life, sources and his comments about Iranian music and the "destgah" system in Rabt-ı Tagyîrat-ı Musiki are included and evaluated.

In the article "Variation of tasnif and timbres in "Chahargah" mugham dastgah", attention is paid to the issue of the variation of timbres and tasnifs related to the "Chahargah" mugham dastgah, which has a unique place in Azerbaijani music. Examining the vocal-instrumental variants of the "Chahargah" mugham dastgah on the basis of recordings reveals a variety of timbres and tasnifs. In performance practice, we often find repetition of the same timbres in mugham variants, however, the playing of different timbres in a series of performances opens the way for the emergence of a new version of the mugham dastgah. In the "Chahargah" mugham performance, "Chahargah" tasnifs and timbres with different content were used. An analysis of most notated music samples shows that tasnif and timbres are closely related to mugham divisions, reflecting their reference scales and melodic characteristics. As it became clear from the research carried out, the fact that it sometimes has common reference scales makes it possible to use tasnif and timbres with different names. The study of these reveals variance in both note writing and performance practice. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

MELODY ,ARABIC literature ,NARRATION ,MELODIES (Songs) - Abstract
Melodic progression is one of the most essential elements of the "Mode" definition in Iranian and Arabic-Turkish music. There is a distinctive manifestation of this concept in Persian classical music due to the distinctive features of Dastgâh. This article aims to trace some continuities in the concept of melodic progression, reaching from the earliest medieval treatises, through the Safavid period, and into the modern era, when the Dastgâh became dominant. In this musical system the concept of melodic progression has recently been termed Seyir-e Naghmegi, where Seyir is used as an acronym for that concept. The purpose of this study is to explore the role and position of Seyir within the Dastgâhi system. So this study's problems are: Due to the multi-layered structure of the Dastgâh, how many levels is the concept of Seyir defined? How are the different levels of the Seyir concept related to each other? The recent reports on Seyir in the literature on the subject, from the micro to macro levels, have been discussed separately. Thus, the purpose of the study was to come to a conclusion by describing different repertoire narrations and deductive reasoning in order to draw a conclusion. Using a descriptive-analytic approach, the article collected written information as library studies and discussed it. Manuscripts and treatises are also studied using the historical method. According to this study, the Seyir concept appears at three levels, each of which is independent, coherent, and contiguous. According to the article, the following three levels have been identified: Micro level: Gūsheh, Middle level: Âvâz, Macro level: Dastgâh. This study demonstrates that Seyir, as an abstract concept in a modal structure, does not define "melody" in any exact sense, thus forcing the melody to conform to the exact expression of the mode. The concept of Seyir in a Dastgâhi system, as a framework that is closed in the dimensions of seven Dastgâh-hâ and five or with a grace of six Âvâz-hâ, offers the possibility of endogenizing new modes on previously used platforms within the system. While the use of different permutations of the tetrachords and pentachords gives "98 Circles" the concept of Seyir can create infinite modes. In short, the Seyir in its general and common sense in the Iranian and Arabic-Turkish field refers to a set of modal aesthetic criteria that provides the basis for transforming mode into a definite and tangible form. As Seyir progresses from abstraction (sound scale) to determination (melody), it incorporates concepts such as melodic figures. In this regard, Seyir's ability to organize new modes on a mutual scale with existing modes is expanded. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

DASTGAH ,MUSICAL composition ,MUSICAL analysis ,MUSICOLOGY ,MUSICAL interpretation - Abstract
Iranian dastgāhi music is considered as the classical repertory of contemporary Iran. In the 19th century, the melodic modes that developed during its long history were grouped in categories, each of them known as dastgāh. The dastgāhi system presents unique features, that have been object of musicological study since its inception. However, computational methods for its research are still scarce, due in good part to the lack of open, well curated corpora. The aim of the KUG Dāstgahi Corpus (KDC) is to contribute to the development of computational corpus driven research for this tradition. KDC is created following the FAIR principles, and in close collaboration with performers and scholars, who contribute to it with annotations and qualitative evaluations. Besides presenting the first version of KDC, in this paper we explore the possibilities that Iranian dastgāhi music offers to computational research. In order to test the performance of state-of-the-art technologies applied to this music tradition, we present preliminary results for several analytical tasks, and discuss their opportunities and limitations learnt in the process.

Dieser Artikel untersucht die kreativen Prozesse in der freien modalen Solo-Improvisation in iranischer klassischer Musik mithilfe eines analytisch-vergleichenden Ansatzes. Der Text ist in drei Hauptabschnitte gegliedert: (1) »Lehr- und Lernprozesse in der Improvisation iranischer Musik«, (2) »Die Wechselbeziehung zwischen persischer Sprache und iranischer Musik«, (3) »Die Herleitung theoretischer Regeln der iranischen modalen Solo-Improvisation durch vergleichende Analyse«. Der Schwerpunkt der Untersuchung liegt auf der vergleichenden Analyse von neun Aufführungen einer Gūše namens Qaratsche – fünf vokalen und vier instrumentalen Performances ̶ , die ein breites Spektrum von Möglichkeiten innerhalb eines bestimmten Modalbereichs abdecken. Außerdem wird in der Analyse gezeigt, wie das gleiche melodische Material in unterschiedlichen Arrangements präsentiert werden kann. This article explores creative processes in free modal improvisation by soloists in Iranian classical music through an analytical-comparative approach. The text is divided into three main sections: (1) “Teaching and learning Iranian music improvisation,” (2) “The interrelationship between Persian language and Iranian music,” (3) “The derivation of theoretical rules for Iranian modal solo improvisation through comparative analysis.” The study is based on a comparative analysis of nine performances (five vocal and four instrumental) of a gūše called Gharache covering a broad spectrum of possibilities within a certain modal area. The study also demonstrates how the same melodic material can be presented in different arrangements.

Статья посвящена жизненному и творческому пути еврейского музыканта Мортеза Ней-Давуда (1900/01—1990) — одного из выдающихся представителей классической традиции иранской музыки. Яркая фигура исполнителя, композитора и автора известной песни — патриотического гимна Morġ-e saḥar («Птица рассвета») — помещена в контекст процесса модернизации культуры рубежа XIX—XX веков и состояния еврейской общины после конституционной революции 1905—1911 гг. Анализ содержания Morġ-e saḥar выявил устойчивый концепт, связанный с мотивом солнца, изображенного в древних культурах в виде крылатого диска. Образно-словесный концепт поддерживается ладом māhūr, словарные значения которого — «проданный» (др.-евр.) и «глубокий овраг» (перс.) — предположительно указывают на Иосифа, вызволенного из глубокого рва или мрака колодца (Бытие 37:26—28), а также пограничное состояние сознания между полным отчаянием и безграничной радостью. Делается вывод о том, что лабиринт метафор, связывающий древнюю символику c библейским нарративом в образно-звуковую целостность «Птицы рассвета», отражает глубинную суть еврейской идентичности Персии рубежа XIX—XX веков. Звучание «Птицы рассвета» в заключительном разделе «Азербайджанского каприччио» Фикрета Амирова (1961) усиливает образно-символическое значение мелодии средствами симфонического оркестра., The article is devoted to the life and creative path of the Jewish musician Morteza Ney-Davud (1900/01—1990) — an outstanding representative of the classical tradition of Iranian music. The bright figure of the performer and composer, author of the famous song ‘Morġ-e saḥar’ (‘Bird of Dawn’) is described in the context of the process of modernization of culture at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries and the state of the Jewish community after the constitutional revolution of 1905—11. The analysis of the content of the ‘Bird of Dawn’ has revealed a stable concept of classical Persian poetry associated with the motif of the sun depicted in ancient cultures as a winged disk. The figurative-verbal concept is supported by the mode ‘māhūr’, the etymological meanings of which — ‘sold’ (Hebrew) and ‘deep ravine’ (Persian) — presumably point at Joseph, rescued from a deep ditch or darkness of a well (Genesis 37:26—28), as well as at a liminal state of consciousness between complete despair and boundless joy. It is suggested that the labyrinth of metaphors linking the ancient symbolism with the Biblical narrative into the integrity of the ‘Bird of Dawn’ reflects the deep essence of Jewish identity of Persia at the turn of the the 19th and 20th centuries. The inclusion of the ‘Bird of Dawn’ into the final section of Fikret Amirov’s ‘Azerbaijani Capriccio’ (1961) enhances the melody’s symbolism by means of symphony orchestra.

Hajimolahoseini, H., Amirfattahi, R., and Zekri, M.
- Abstract
In this paper, a three layer artificial neural network is proposed that, independent of Root note selection, classifies the Persian musical Dastgahs into five main groups: Shur, Homayun, Segah, Chahargah and Mahur. It implies the training of the network in order to be able to classify all of 120 possible cases for the Persian musical Dastgahs based on 24 different Root notes in an octave of Persian music. The network receives a vector of 24 possible notes of an octave in which the used notes are represented by a “1” and unused notes are represented by a “0”. After training, the network is able to correctly classify 100 percent of the 120 possible cases for Persian musical Dastgahs in five main groups. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

Ce mémoire a pour objet de créer et d’explorer, dans la composition musicale, des rencontres entre musiques du Moyen-Orient (particulièrement la musique savante persane) et de l’Occident, de sorte que les éléments esthétiques de chacun soient préservés. D’un autre côté, j’ai cherché à retrouver les tendances musicales qui sont communes entre ces systèmes musicaux afin de parvenir à une unité formelle, tout en créant un langage unique. Ce mémoire portera sur l’analyse des oeuvres que j’ai composées au cours de ma maitrise en composition instrumentale à l’Université de Montréal : Hétérotopie, Le mouvement substantiel, Kamalto et Deuil de Cyprès. Les analyses de ces oeuvres démontrent mon emploi des matériaux modaux, des morphèmes, des cycles rythmiques, d’improvisation, de combinaisons de systèmes aux niveaux des hauteurs et de l’ornementation, ainsi que de manière plus générale, des textures, des formes et des harmonies. Mots-clés : Hétérophonie, Ethnomusicologie, Orient-Occident, Système de hauteur, Musique savante persane, Dastgâh, Maqâm, Modes orientaux, Instruments orientaux, Kamanché, Multiculturalisme, Tradition et modernité, Modes de jeux contemporains., The purpose of this master’s dissertation is to explore musical encounters between Middle Eastern music (especially Persian classical music) and Western music, with the purpose of preserving the aesthetic elements of each one. I tried, as well, to find musical tendencies that are common between these heterogeneous musical systems in order to achieve a formal unity in a unique language. This master dissertation will deal with the analysis of the musical pieces, which I have been composing during the Master’s instrumental composition program at the Université de Montréal: Heterotopia, The Substantial Movement, Kamalto and Cypress Mourning. What is considered in the analysis of the mentioned works particularly focuses on the usage of modal materials, morphemes, rhythmic cycles, improvisation, ornamentation and the combination of pitch systems, as well, in more general ways, on the textures and the forms. Keywords: Heterophony, Ethnomusicology, Iran, East-West, pitch system, Persian classical music, Dastgâh, Maqâm, oriental modes, oriental instruments, Kamancheh, multiculturalism, Tradition and modernity, Extended techniques.

Naqmey-e Sahar (The Melody of Dawn) is a composition for solo violin, woodwinds, percussions and strings. The majority of the melodic materials used in this piece came from Iranian popular songs and traditional tunes or melodic patterns from Radif (a collection of modes in Iranian music) in addition to original themes that are composed based on the same musical sources. The harmonic system used in this piece is based on quartal and secundal chords while tertian chords with added notes are also used occasionally in this piece. The piece contains three different movements with no space in between. Even though each movement has its own characteristics and special features, different movements share the same musical ideas. The 1st movement is in ABCAB form, and it is the longest movement of the piece. It employs melodies in the modes of Māhur, Chahārgāh, Dashti and Shur as well as those based on folk songs. The 2nd movement is written in ABC form and demonstrates a lot of concepts of Radif, mostly in the mode of Esfahān. The middle section of this movement is an ametric cadenza that uses many melodic and rhythmic figures from Radif. The finale of the piece is a fast dance-like movement in ABC form that uses a very simple rhythmic motive as the basic idea. Not only do the principal themes from the 1st movement reappear in this movement, the final section of this movement also brings back the same atmosphere as in the very beginning of the piece.
