Artwork by J.F Oliveiras, music and vocals by Farya Faraji. Please keep in mind that this is in no way a reconstruction of Ancient Iranian music, it's modern Iranian music with an ancient thematic. This is a theme I wrote around the idea of the Arsacid dynasty, who would usher in the Parthian Empire, the second of the major Iranian empires of Antiquity, and the only one of the three not to be Persian. The Arsacid or Parthian Empire is often relegated to the status of the middle-child between the older, unanimously known Achaemenid sibling, and the later, highly prestigious Sasanian Empire. The Parthian Empire, however, was no footnote of West Eurasian history, and it played a major part both as an Iranian superpower and as an arch-rival to the Romans for centuries. The Arsacid dynasty first emerged as members of the Parni tribe, likely speakers of a Northeastern Iranian language, and in time, would come to adopt the culture and language of the Parthians, speakers of a Northwestern Iranian language. Arsaces' rise occurred during the Seleucid Empire; one of the Successor Kingdoms of Alexander's empire, founded by Seleukos, one of his generals. The Arsacid rise to power ousted the Hellenic occupiers and brought back native Iranian control over the region for the first time in centuries. The Parthian Empire would prevail for four centuries until the rise of the Persian Sasanian dynasty. The instrumentation is centered around the kamanche, the main bowed instrument of Iranian music, and it’s accompanied by a tanbour, a tar, and daf percussions, as well as the ney flute. Exceptionally, I’ve used a duduk here. I absolutely cannot stand the usage of the duduk in “historical music,” whether on UA-cam or in film soundtracks: it’s the go to lazy solution for any composer without knowledge of Middle-Eastern music to evoke a “Middle-Eastern sound,” that is, the Middle-Eastern sound that Western film composers have made up in lieu of actually studying the region’s tradition. The duduk is principally an Armenian instrument, and its use is relegated to the region of Armenia, East Anatolia and Azerbaijan. In this case though, I used the duduk for a specific reason: the Arsacid dynasty had an Armenian branch that ruled over Armenia, and the use of the duduk here is a nod to that. The lyrics are in the Parthian language, an Iranian language related to Persian in the same way that Russian and Polish are both members of a larger linguistic family, Slavic in the case of Russian and Polish, Iranian or Iranic in the case of Parthian and Persian. The lyrics are based on the Parthian language inscription by Shapur I, ironically a king of the dynasty who would centuries later overthrow the Arsacid dynasty--Parthian's cultural relevance was still great enough at the beginning of the Sasanian Empire that most royal inscriptions were written both in Persian and Parthian. I took the Parthian language inscription and switched out Shapur's name for Arsaces'. Note the usage of the term Erān to refer to Iran--it is a commonly held misconception, even among Iranians, that the term Persia is the historical, ancestral name of the land, and that Iran is a more recent intrusion.The opposite is true: variations of the term same term Aryana, Erān, Iran, etc, have always historically been used by Iranians to refer to their own land, and Persia is a Western exonym originating in Ancient Greece, where the name for the province of Pars was erroneously applied to the entirety of the land.

I only recently discovered this channel and I am amazed both by your original works but also the historical covers. I love how much effort you put into descriptions of both the cultural and historical background of the music, your design choices etc. and that you aren't discriminatory in your selection of music, though as a Persian learner I most appreciate the Iranian pieces - one can really feel that you do this for the music first and foremost. Thanks for putting out all this music for free and keeping up such high standards in an internet landscape where such effort does not often get the reward it deserves!
@@ciaronsmith4995 The Parthians were an Iranian tribe. But they did not merely “influence” Armenian. They literally had a role in the ethnogenesis of modern Armenians. Ie Armenians are Armenian because of the Parthians.
That's fine. But it's a culturally Iranian dynasty. Parthia is Iran. Iran influenced and set the foundations for other races/peoples too, but it's Iranian at its core. Eran.@@gavinpanjar5559
amazing mate, the parthians were one of the most important empires as a rival to the roman empire and also were greatly known for their spread of buddhism to china and so on......Great music as always
@@Azad_İla Yes, the Parthians were made up of different Iranian tribes, they were the Persians of Great Khorasan, the Scythians, the Kurds, the Maznis and the Sistanis.
I love the continuity that you create through your music and subsequent symphonies thereafter. Though it is all said and done, it makes me appreciate this song more and has piqued my interest in Iranian history.
epic as always! I wondered for a while when you would do a Parthian song, since your other Iranian tracks are mostly about the Achaemenid and Sassanian Empires. This did not disappoint. I also love how the song begins with a melody from the Alexander the Great Symphony.
Thank you from Russia for the incredibly beautiful and atmospheric music, Farya Faraji! If it didn't seem to me, then in the text I heard "mazdēsn bay" (1:21), "šāhān šāh Ērān" (1:26) and "kē čihr az yazadān" (1:32). As far as I know, this formulation is found exclusively in the Sasanian titulature. The titulature of Aršak (ΑΡΣΑΚΟΥ ΑΥΤΟΚΡΑΤΟΡΟΣ) and his descendants (for example, ΒΑΣΙΛΕΥΣ ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΝ / šāhān šāh) is known to us. I apologize for the meticulousness!)
Thanks alot Maxim! Indeed, as I pointed out in the description I used a Sasanian inscription in the Parthian language and switched out the name of Shāpur for Arsaces’. There were other Parthian inscriptions from the Parthian era, but none of them worked as lyrics; we must keep in mind that I can’t use just any text, I have to use texts than fit the melody I wrote. I made the decision to use the Shapur I inscription since it worked the best for the melody, and just changed the name :)
Is that Alexander's symphony I hear at the beginning of the video? It makes sense, given the Hellenic influence the Parthians received from the Seleucids. Great music as always!
Right after turning this video on i noticed this specific graphic. I remember it from music clip "Charge of Cataphracts", which amongs others had this pecific graphic to, and it stunned me how beautifull and epic it was (time 1:30 for interested).
Damn, can't believe I missed this in my recommended. As per usual, very nice music, and leaves me with a bit of reading to do. (Your songs always get me reading about the subject, be it the Akritai or Hikanatoi)
Many monarchs erased and replaced the name of previous rulers on the monuments, Farya is the first to erase the name of the following one, really time travel eheh Anyway, good job as usual! From what I remember, the very first Parthians were heavily-hellenic influenced (they were a satrapy of Seleucid dinasty, I think). So I wonder how a mixture between parthian and ancient greek would sound 😁
I really appreciate the amount of work you are putting in these sort of historic iranian music videos. Do you have any mazandarani music video planned by any chance?
I’ve already done three Mazandarani songs, Lare, Te Gere and Te Male, you can find them in my Songs of the World playlist. I’ll be making more into the future too, I’m Mazandarani :)
It will likely take me a few more listens to fully see all the references in the piece, but I already see the start being from "Alexander", and the later part modified, but still similar, to "Achaemenids". This is, in my opinion, probably the best "feature" of your art, that it's all connected, and just feels like a whole interconnected world.
Btw Boris, would you mind letting me know if the Latin in these lyrics is correct? I’m working on another Roman song and you have alot more experience than I do. Laudamus: Honor, Glōria, Vigor, Potentia, Senātor et agricola, Canimus et canimus: Senātus populusque Rōmānus! 2.

Laudamus: Iupiter, Victoria, Neptunus, Fortūna, Piscator, et poeta, Canimus et canimus: Senātus populusque Rōmānus! My translation/intended meaning is: We praise: Honor, glory, Vigor, strength, Senator and farmer, We sing and sing: “The Senate and the People of Rome” We praise: Romulus, genitor/father/parent And Brutus, liberator, Merchant and warrior, We sing and sing: “The People and the Senate of Rome!” We Praise: Jupiter, Victoria, Neptune, Fortuna, Fisherman and poet, We sing and sing: “The Senate and the People of Rome” I’m 99% the lyrics are grammatically correct but I’m not too at ease with the inflexions of Latin so I’d rather double check and be sure.
@@faryafaraji From what I know, this is entirely correct. Victoria and fortuna could be translated, to victory and luck/fortune, but it is not wrong as it is. Thanks for asking me, and I hope my answer helped.
The Arsacids (how do you pronounce it? In Bulgarian, it's "Ahr-shah-kids") were something unexpected. Not Persian but still Iranian. They reversed the work of Alexander and the Seleucids' legacy; still, their kings were known to read Euripides and quote Alexander's success as a threat to Romans.
They were not Persian right but were closely related. Later the Parthians were decendant of some Persians like house Karen-Pahlav (later: Karen) and Kurds, Armenians=Pahlavuni. Pahlav is another word for Parthian
In Iran today we call them Ashkānian (the ā is like the “a” sound when a posh British accent says “part” or “start”). Btw, don’t forget to send me that song you mentionned on Messenger ! :p
@@anusirvan11 they were Easter Iranian scythian warier tribes like Sogdian Bacteria people they were Parni or Dahae a tribes of Sogdian, they helped a lot the Spitamenes against Alexander the western fantasy hero, from Marve they established the parthian empire, as a tajiks we proud of Sach warier ancestors to defeat the Greek and challenged the Roman empire for centuries, glorious be thier sole.

Interestingly enough notation is probably one of the most stable aspects of music throughout history. Most of the notation we use today was used as far back as Ancient Mesopotamian cultures. All of the Western melodic modes exist in Iranian styles of music, it's the Eastern modes that don't exist in Western music. What generates most of the difference is the instruments used or the playing style, so for example most Taylor Swift songs are in the same mode as the Iranian dastgāh of “Māhur”, or Billie Eilish’s “Bury a Friend” is in the same mode as the mode “Isfahān.”
⚔️🔥Iran is the land of the Aryans🔥⚔️ Aryavarta, aryan zameen, The Proto-indo European Parent of the world. Post Babylonian kingdom predating Greeks and Romans.
@@Indo-Aryan9644 eranshahr doesn’t mean land of the aryans, more like Iranian Kingdom/Empire. Iranzamin or Iranzamig in Parthian means land of the aryans
One of my favorites. Still can't decide whether I prefer the original or the variations found in the Carrhae symphony Anyway, what mode is this song written in?

Bro, can you turn a western song into a Persian tune?
I really wanna know what kind of ancient notation you would approach for a more modern melody.
Interestingly enough notation is probably one of the most stable aspects of music throughout history. Most of the notation we use today was used as far back as Ancient Mesopotamian cultures. All of the Western melodic modes exist in Iranian styles of music, it's the Eastern modes that don't exist in Western music. What generates most of the difference is the instruments used or the playing style, so for example most Taylor Swift songs are in the same mode as the Iranian dastgāh of “Māhur”, or Billie Eilish’s “Bury a Friend” is in the same mode as the mode “Isfahān.”

This is the Parthian Empire bro
Shāh Arshak was the first and founder of Parthian Empire aka Arsacid dynasty.
This is long before Sassanids.

درود فریا جان، امکان استفاده از موزیک هایی که ساختی توی ویدیو یوتیوب هست ؟
Wow
Iran`s and Armenia`s Pride and Glory.
⚔️🔥Iran is the land of the Aryans🔥⚔️
Aryavarta, aryan zameen, The Proto-indo European Parent of the world. Post Babylonian kingdom predating Greeks and Romans.
*Arayavarta means land of Aryans = India.
*Eranshar/Aryanshar means land of Aryans= Iran.
@@Indo-Aryan9644 eranshahr doesn’t mean land of the aryans, more like Iranian Kingdom/Empire. Iranzamin or Iranzamig in Parthian means land of the aryans

One of my favorites. Still can't decide whether I prefer the original or the variations found in the Carrhae symphony
Anyway, what mode is this song written in?
Freya Jan can you mix Roman and Iranian music to show the war-peace relationship between two Ancient world powers?! (just an idea from your Iranian follower)(:
This'll be interesting. No doubt they had lots of time and opportunity for cultural exchanges!
best best best

Battle of Carrhae will be perfect for this music
Please do you know where comes from the statue carved into the stone beside the warrior ?
It’s a votive Parthian statue found in Khuzestan :)
@@faryafaraji Thank you, I was surprised when I saw it, because it's the exact doppelganger of my great great grandfather :P
