Fill up the goblet since It's not clear to me
This breath that I take in I take out or not... "
Ommar Khayam
57:40 - "Lullaby for the travelling child" - Composed by Mehdi Aminian - Arranged by both musicians
“My love, remain a kid,
The world will force you to grow.
My love remain a kid, you will be sick and tired of the world if you grow up.
It is so cruel that the moment you forget your childhood it turns you into a stone!”
Ahmad Shamloo
1:04:26 - "October" - Composed by Mehdi Aminian
"Quieter than Silence” is a project of the Roots Revival Cultural Association based in Vienna.
"What is this metaphor we call silence? In our music, silence does not want to abstain from utterance. On the contrary, it wants to render the intentional or imposed state of muteness on the way to universal consciousness and to sublime awareness. This music intends to create a space beyond silence (“Quieter than silence”), of the complete dissolution of speech. Speech that has been emptied of meaning in an ever noisier and aggressive world. A world where less than ever is being done to revive the human dignity trampled under never ending consumerism, wars, conflicts, nationalism and their consequences. This is an era where words and communication have lost their primary function.
This project makes the symbolic journey of returning to nothingness, a tabula rasa of existence in order to invest sounds with a new creative power, worthy of dialogue.
“Quieter than Silence” is rooted in Persian, Syrian and Sufi music cultures, applying various rhythmical and timbral elements throughout the process, which makes it a unique artistic repertoire hard to attribute it to particular geographical identity.
"Quieter than Silence” is a dedication to the wandering Syrians in distress and grief. It is a form of compassion and a protest against all the noise in the world."

My roots are Indian and I am a musician of North Indian classical music. Our traditional music system is heavily influenced by Iran as well as many other countries in the near east like Turkey due to historical encounters with one another. It is truly difficult to explain how beautiful and endearing it is to hear this music, especially as I’m walking at dusk with a near full moon above me 🌔 Much love and kudos to such amazing musicians!
I cannot figure out if this music is the basis of our Indian classical music. However, it is a beautiful piece of music, very soothing to the soul.
I think Iranian music is the one taking inspiration from indian
@@KahroSynetic Nah I believe Indian Classical got string and rhythm elements from cultural exchanges with early Persian civilizations. There are of course other elements of Indian classical music -- primarily the structures of raagas and phases -- that are well attributed to older bronze era Indian cultures.
Shagun you have a inferiority complex ... Hindustani instruments and music are to me far superior n touch the ..this is nice but like most western..soul is missing..came across this as a suggestion from UA-cam n iys not my type.. full respect to the artists n iranis.. 1000 yrs foreign rule created too many psycophants in india
@@RavitShrivastav You are seems to be Distorian than Musician.
I lived in Syria when I was younger, a year or two before civil war fell upon it. It seems so long ago, but listening to this I can remember all the faces of my school friends. Who knows where they all are, what happened to them. Never have I wept so sincerely over music, for all those people who I called friends that I will never know the fates of but fear for so greatly. Thank you for sharing this music, it spoke to me in a way unlike any other piece has.
My heart goes out to you. May the God of heaven sustain and protect you and may He bring sll your friends safely back to you. God loves you and He knows your pain.
Hello from Puerto Rico, may I have your name? I would like to pray for you today. Your message moves me. I hope you have a peaceful day, and I hope God can shine his face on you and all Syrians in this day and forevermore. Te envío mucho amor 🧡 I send you much love from the Caribbean. The suffering of his people always comes to his ears, our pleads are not in vain, nor are we ever alone, he is the noise quieter than silence, the breath, the spirit, the everything. He is here now, and forever.
God is in you brothers and sisters Amin a sacred time lives in your relations we always are with our infinite source great sacrifice of our mothers and peace of our fathers Soul Great teacher if wellbeing freewill is ours blessing walk with your teacher from now on

"Lullaby for the travelling child" - 57:40
For those of you who are wondering what he is saying.
la la layi is lalabye you sing to kids to sleep (he sings this in the beginning and the end)
My love, remain a child
The world will force you to grow
Whether you are a lamb or not,
The wolf will turn you into a wolf
The world is a coloured pencil, even if you are the best painter
The world/society will still paint you
My love, remain a child
You will be sick and tired of the world if you grow up
It is so cruel that the moment you forget your childhood, it will turn you into a stone.
Thank you for translating, am Persian but don’t speak it. This song brought some beautiful tears
Thank you , so much , I am brazilian and I felt like missing a family that it's not mine in this journey , couldn't stop crying and feeling grateful at the same time , thanks for sharing the translated lyrics!

Amen
"Not Christian or Jew or Muslim, not Hindu, Buddhist, Sufi, or Zen.
Not any religion or cultural system. I am not from the east or the west,
not out of the ocean or up from the ground, not natural or ethereal, not composed of elements at all.
I do not exist, am not an entity in this world or the next, did not descend from Adam and Eve or any origin story.
My place is the placeless, a trace of the traceless. Neither body or soul.
I belong to the beloved, have seen the two worlds as one and that one call to and know, first, last, outer, inner,
only that breath breathing human being.
"
~ Rumi (or not! But definitely a breathing human being!)
Wow it's wonderful !! He is explaining the other dimensions.How can it be understood by those who never glanced above this one dimension.🙏🙏🙏🙏
This poem does not belong to Rumi. There are a lot of words floating around such these verses, but some of them -including this one, exactly cannot be referenced to Mevlana Jalaluddin Rumi. He was Muslim, and one of the best representative of sufism -islamic mysticism/philosophy, yet he compassionately welcomed everyone from any religion, culture or nation exist on earth. This is why he still call out to many people after eight centuries he lived. There are many verses regarding 'toleration' or spritualism in his very famous book "MESNEVI", but he never ever expressed that he is not Muslim. Please do not deceive anyone intentionally or unintentionally by sharing a few 'mystic/transcendental' looking words/verses that you are not sure where it comes from. Thank you in advance.
@@freedom36 Whoever transcends and comes to know himself, thus knowing the Creator, is above "religion".... He becomes "spiritual" . Words are of no avail....
@@freedom36
This poem most CERTAINLY belongs to Rumi. I have read it in Farsi (which is exquisite beyond the confines of any translation), I have also read this translation by Coleman Barks, and I have also read the other translation by Annemarie Schimmel. I don't understand why you so vehemently and mistakenly deny credit to Rumi. Most people don't insist this rigorously when they're not sure of something. And you state and spread this misinformation when you have obviously not read it in Farsi. In the original poem, as in the translations, he does in fact say he is not a muslim in the context that he is stating he doesn't belong to the confines of any religion and yes, he does name islam as one of them. I'd show you my books of Rumi , which include this poem, but since you're on youtube, here's the original: It's the very first screen, so pause it and see for yourself, if you are farsi literate:
ua-cam.com/video/e6cGxtKQdJk/v-deo.html
Perhaps it is you who should please not deceive anyone intentionally or unintentionally by sharing this misinformation when you can't possibly be sure considering you are factually wrong. Thank you in advance.
Then I print a book in Farsi which does not contain this poem and with a claim of him that he says "I am muslim" and strengthen my own "false thoughts"? I will not continue to comment on this issue. I wish everyone a better state of understanding the universe, the beauties within it and the Creator of all of them - Allah.
I am from Bangladesh and my eyes wells up in tears. It is strange how pain unites all souls. Why have we built a world on so much hate, when there is so love.
This concert made me think poetically in children around the world suffering, being hurt, kidnapped, killed by economic interests, particularly Lullaby for the travelling child. This press my hearth 'till today.
My name is Lloyd Plummer , I live in Cleveland Texas , it's 8.30 pm 78 degrees , I listened to the entire concert and it was very beautiful , Thank you.
THIS CONCERT WAS ORGANISED IN A VENUE IN BUCHAREST, the capital of my country, ROMANIA, which is situated in the EASTERN side of Europe...Europe is a continent..my best thoughts, gelu batir, romania, jan, 2021

middle east is a colonial term. use west asia instead
I do not see the video so that I will be absorbed by the music only.
I close my eyes and travel. I fly. I hover over a valley of Iran, over the desert at sunset. I cry. My soul is soothed. My mind empties. I am going up. I breathe peace.
This voice at 1.07 and the lamenting bass at 1.09 are haunting.
Thank you so much for this travel !!!!
Greetings from Athens-Greece

Wow, what an incredible performance! I picked up the Ney about a year ago and JUST now started lessons. This is one of the biggest musical references I've found so far. Also, as a percussionist, I must say that the dude on the left is GREAT! His whole drum solo intro was incredible later on in the performance!
i can't sit still listening to this; what joyous torture for the people in the audience of this performance

As if not from this world, this concert is evidence that music is universal, greetings from Turkey!
Living on the island of La palma I lost EVERYTHING to the volcano on Sept.20.2021 .... this music helped me and helps me still to survive . Sitting here in the rented house and looking at the volcanos mound only two kilometers away I feel with the refugees of UKRAINIA who have lost much more. I have lost to natures brutality but they have lost to a inhuman war.

"Quieter than Silence” is a dedication to the wandering Syrians in distress and grief. It is a form of compassion and a protest against all the noise in the world.
The noise which makes everything worthless and probably it has been here since the beginning of the creation.
Amen!
The noise that turns protests into silence while killing goes on 😢

So much love in the comments.... Its a rare site these days unfortunately.... Thanks for bringing everybody together with this amazing sound/music.
I'm guitar player from Southamerica, in the south of Chile. I'm fascinated for the strings instruments that you people have on those magical lands so distant to us in the end of the world. The Oud sounds so beautiful, stunning, and the Setar magical too.
" A shattered beauty"..what a song!..brilliant! Perfect harmony between oud and setar. Thank you
Listening to these beautiful sounds from Aotearoa New Zealand on Christmas eve and feeling very connected with the rest of the world. Thank you.
Bula
May this music be a pray for a deep peace in Iran, now and always.
لااضن ذلك
It is always worthwhile to pray.
actually we should just close our eyes and listen to this music..donot watch them play..it is so blissful..I am from India so know how classical music is..it is soulful unlike the rock music which is just high pitch beating of instruments
Greetings from Germany. It’s evening here and I’m in bed just listening to this wonderful concert. I feel at peace, a feeling I haven’t felt in months. It’s bringing tears to my eyes. Thank you. ❤️

Once I replayed this performance 4 times in a single day. I’ve put this on to fall asleep, to wake up, to work, etc. I can’t get enough of it.
Brilliant. Soothing. I am listening in the middle of a storm in Scotland.
Mehdi Aminian, thank you so much!! Tears have flowed from my eyes for the songs you sang and the fusion that you created. It brought back memories of the Iran which I knew 40 years ago. Its plains, its Imamzadehs, its Hafez and Ferdowsi, its beautiful monuments and language, its people and their generous hospitality for one and all. Please continue to do this and bring Persia to the world through your music.

II'm listening while painting. Absolutely beautiful. Thank you.
I am used to listening to Carnatic and Hindustani music. This video concert was recommended and I'm very grateful to the modern technology which has helped me to relate more to this kind of music which I've heard very little. As the say goes, known and heard is only a part of a drop, unknown is ocean and takes more than a life time. Thanks to Mehdi Aminian and the team. Looking forward to listening more music. Great work. keep going.
Here in Spain, I can imagine myself wandering through Toledo's narrow passages many centuries ago... Such beautiful sounds fill the night. Transfixing music... transcendent, sacred, quieter than silence... Thank you so very much.

I listened to these piece for hundreds of times. Moving and touching it is for me. Goes through the history and brings the joy of life and also respect to the suffering in the world. talks about hope. Arabs and Persians they have the same roots, this is I believe. This fusion of music goes beyond the borders.
Thank you, after my burn accident this helped me reconect with my feeling and un-numb me a bit thx.
The calm unforced slow sadness and resilience. exactly what i needed
hey. how you feeling?
All my best wishes for your wellbeing! The breath of Life blows through every flute no matter how it looks. There is beauty and holiness in everyone. This music really is so pure and deep it really helps one connect with ones deepest nature. I also enjoy it.
blessings to you dear human brother, may the Source shower yur heart with light

At the end of your concert I feel my soul was given the very pure beverage it was asking for while I just didn't realise it was. I feel a more alive, more complete. Your music tells stories only my soul can grasp, but I don't mind cause it feels so good. I m very grateful to you. Just carry on !
57:40...the song: Lullaby for the Traveling Child. The way that Mehdi Aminian sings, and specifically this melody, it will stay in my mind for ever..I feel so moved, that every time I listen to it, my lips are smiling while the tears moisten my eyes.
Me too
Deeply full of beauty
“My love, remain a child,
The world will force you to grow.
Either, if you are a lamb or not,
the wolf will turn you into a wolf.
My love, the world is like a coloured pencil.
It will paint you even if you are the best painter.
My love remain a child,
you will be sick and tired of the world if you grow up.
My love remain a child,
you will be sick and tired if you grow up.
It is so cruel that the moment you forget your childhood
it turns you into a stone.”
BY MEHDI AMINIAN - ROOTS REVIVAL

Greetings from Cleveland Ohio, USA! I love your music! It makes me want to dance! I love the oud and the sitar! Glad I figured out what they were! I’m learning to play another unusual instrument, a dulcimer. I’ll never play as well as you, but I love making music as it is such an integral part of my life! 💜
Wow this is so beautiful...made me cry! Thank you universe for bringing people like them together to offer blissful music ❤👏

At times like this I feel so proud of my culture. Thank you so much for this.
Nobody cares and nobody asked. Plus there is nothing to be proud of, Persians are pagan fire worshipers.
Sitting at my desk at work with my headphones on, and Lullaby made me weep. Stunningly haunting
How wonderful to hear music so different from Western music. Music speaks a language we can all relate to!
Music have no boundaries and arts in general
It's eastern music in reality🌹by the way greeting from iran

Merci Iran I love you with all my heart! ana maria
This is my grandparents music,i remember 20 years ago when i was a kid,my grandfather used to listen to music like this in full volume in their house.good memories
I am from Bangladesh and my eyes wells up in tears. It is strange how pain unites all souls. Why have we built a world on so much hate, when there is so much love in all of us❤
I gotta admit, as soon as I heard lullaby for the travelling child, I went ahead and bought the album. Pure beauty.
Beauty has been embodied in such breathtaking tones! Thanks a zillion for your stunning performance dear great musicians!

I listened to this music several times. It is a great and heartfelt music. In fact, I cried listening to it which I rarely do. I think Mehdi Aminian has a great talent in the Ney and Setar and his voice comes through his heart. Having said that, it is the whole team that includes other players Mohamed Zatari, Leila Soldevila and Behnam Masoumi that makes this music outstanding. Mic Jagger alone doesn't make the Rolling Stone. It is the whole team that makes them a successful band. I hope this team plan a visit to perform in several US cities. Me, my family and relatives will attend it.

“There was a water-drop, it joined the sea,
A speck of dust, it was fused with earth;
what of your entering and leaving this world?
A fly appeared, and disappeared.”― Omar Khayyám................Wisdom, Unsurpassed!
I wish I could give more than a single like. Wonderful music. Thank you.
Absolutely beautiful. I have no words. Music like this is part of what inspires me to want to experience Iran one day.
me too

This music. Emotions. Hmm.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart
Yes, I could not understand the words but get the passion of expectation, experience the love and may be its a prayer for wellness for every mankind and each creature of this planet. I feel proud to have the opportunity of auditory ecstasy to enrich my upper brain with melodies... enhanced my living experience.
Greetings from Brazil 🇧🇷

Thank you for a great comment. It's impossible not to cry, I'm in a period where I'm quieter than silence, so I'm holding back not to cry. I love you.

Behnam Masoumi is incredible.
The speed and the ease of his finger movements! Like feathers of a bird ♥
Извините, я не говорю даже по-английски. Хотелось бы поблагодарить ото всей души музыкантов за чудесную музыку и почтение к своим традициям.
Ilove u all of you guys Wonderfull music!!!!!!! Bommmm Shankar!
The Silence is heard in the Netherlands. Thanks for your love. Music is the space between 2 notes.
You make this happen.
So is the power of Music.......I didn't understand a word of what was being sung....! But it indeed brought tears to my eyes. I have never been to Iran but I can now visualize its people, the beautiful heritage it has and the glory of its rich culture. I am a Santoor ( Indian Santoor) student which has its roots in Iran also... Love and Peace.
