An original composition by Farya Faraji, artwork by Joan Francesc Oliveras Palerolls-if you like Iranian history, be sure to check out his artwork; his drawings are the best visual reconstructions of ancient Iranians I've ever seen on the net: www.artstation.com/jfoliveras...
The piece uses the modal scale of Shur, one of the primary Iranian modal scales, or dastgahs; identical to the Western Aeolian Minor mode, except for the second note of the scale which is microtonal. I used Bakhtyari and Khorasani music as the basis for this piece-the dotar's rythmic melody is reminiscent of Khorasani customs with their great emphasis on the dotar and tanbur, and the zurna and 2/4 time signature are a reference to Bakhtyari Toshmal music, whom
some therorise is derived from the military marches of the Sasanian Empire. I also incorporated elements of Iranian Kurdish tanbur playing styles, which often tends to ornament the playing less with appogiaturas, and will play the notes straighter than Persian music or other Iranian styles. The instrumentation consists of an Iranian tanbur, a zurna and a ney, and the percussions are provided by a davul and a daf. All the instruments used in this piece date back to Iranian Antiquity, and were at least known to be present by late-Parthian era in Iran. Still, do note that this is by no means supposed to have any reproductive pretenses--this is modern folk Iranian music, not by any means a reconstruction of Achaemenid-era music, which we know almost nothing about due to lack of sources.
The Immortals were both the elite corps of the Achaemenid army, as well as its Imperial Guard, similar to the functionned fulfilled by the Praetorian Guard in the Roman Empire. The outfit seen here is most likely their ceremonial one used as guards, as it would have been unlikely that the long robes could have been used in battle. The term "immortals" come to us from Herotodus, and we do not know the nomenclature used by the Iranians themselves at the time. The corps was always kept at 10 000 strong, and whenever one man was seriously wounded or killed, he was instantly replaced, therefore keeping a permanent numerical strength to the fighting force.

When I first saw your channel, I only listened to the Byzantine and Roman pieces, they felt a lot closer to me, more familiar, I liked them more. But now slowly started to realise all the qualities of your other types of music, especially Iranian, and I must thank you for showing me the way in Iranian music, I have definitely fallen in love with it.
I'm super glad you found your way to Iranian music, it's a wonderful tradition of the Middle-East with its own unique sounds and styles, and it's very diverse regionally so that's a plus :p

Ezhidahk at his old age according to historian was mentally unstable and brought discomfort to median people ,when Cyrus took over his grandfather empire everyone were cool with it , Until you show up and talking about Something that happened 2 and half thousand years ago between two Aryan family one median and other Persian , I am a Median an Aryan but i see the bigger picture ,I know Cyrus didn’t mean bad toward our people
I am a Zaza-Kurdish person and agree with you 100%. Iranic people should be closer to each other, especially Kurds and other Iranic people in Iran❤. I think the balances are changing nowadays in the world and I believe Iran will gain more power, also Kurds outside of Iran.

Please more of these, this brings out the persian warrior in me ⚔️🔥⚔️
It's said that the Immortals were the best warriors of their time. They were trained in using all weapons, were remarkably brave and never lied in their life. And at Thermopylae they were just badly deployed. In every other battle against Greeks they were always the ones who didn't break even if facing defeat.
As always, I love your music and this masterpiece is awesome.
Yeah! But the Sassanid Immortals (Zhayedan) are my favorite ones! (:
According to Herodotus, the Persian and Median troops never broke even when the tide of battle was against them at Platea and Marathon. He even wrote their courage was such that even when outmatched in equipment, they would wrestle and seize the Greek heavy infantry to the ground.
Y’a but the Spartans 300 were better, since they where hand pick from the best warriors, plus Sparta ha a militaristic nation, so for them to be the best of the best they were powerful , the immortals were very strong due to their rich equipment and battle experience, it think the Spartans had an edge
In the case of Thermopylae, the three hundred also had a further seven thousand other Greeks with them. In either case, they outclassed their Persian counterparts through a combination of several factors but were still slaughtered almost to the last.
@@Hluz Not really, in a purely frontal attack while deployed in phalanx, the Spartans would have the advantage, however the Immortals were trained to use the bow, sword, spear, javelin and can ride horses etc. and they too were trained since childhood. In an open field, versatility wins.
I love Ancient Persia, the Immortals are so interesting to me.

@@avestazaza7458 Well, that's why i said "greetings to Persian culfure". Did not claim that is a Turkish song :)
If you’re from Turkey then you aren’t original pure turk. The real turks are living in Central Asia. Turkish Turks are just mixed of aboriginal anatolians, greeks and turk invaders from central asia.

grâce à un ami je viens de découvrir cette formidable chaîne... qui m'accompagneras désormais dans toutes mes lectures ! J'adore écouter des musiques en lien avec la thématique de mes livres !
Very fitting music! Good answer to Legends of sparta and lament for leonidas 😁 keep up with the good work, farya!!
Thanks a lot, Farya ❤❤❤❤
Dude as always amazing work! I’m from southern Italy and I would like to see a video about southern Italian music like tarantella or pizzica or tammorra… I ask because you are really talented and it would be a awesome if you do a video about our music. Love from Italy!
Thanks my man! I'm definitely going to move into Italian music in not too long; I'm planning to document folk songs in the regional languages of the country like Venetian and Sicilian and built up a collection of those over time, so Southern Italian music is definitely in there :)
@@faryafaraji awesome! I’m so happy you like our musics. Italy it’s not a big country but has so much dialects and languages and in my opinion doing a video with song in Sicilian or Venetian will show to the world how rich is Italy culturally.
@@faryafaraji I’m from the region of Basilicata and I know quite well the local dialect. If you need a hand with some words in your next videos about southern Italian dialects I can help! Have a nice day!👋
Thanks my man, I'll be sure to contact you if I need help!
Vey very nice.. دست مریزاد.. ای عجب برین ساز..
A perfect combination! looks like Cyrus was here crossing the Oxus, will use it for inspiring ancient history bro!
I think more aggressive percussion would have been maybe more fitting here too for something named the Immortals, but hey, I'd call that a nitpick. A rich and beautiful composition as always. The strings are the highlight for me, especially because it sort of sounds reminiscent of melodies my uncle would play with his kids as an instrumental piece sometimes heheheh. Stunning
That's the eternal inner debate I deal with haha; do I stay fully authentic and miss out on the more "epic" vibe or not? When doing this one I really felt like limiting myself completely to Iranian folk instruments that existed back then (or at least during Antiquity), and the davul and daf can be agressive but nowhere near the Hans Zimmer-y orchestral drums I used in some of my other pieces (obviously those are from VST programs, not physical ones.) For this one I was more interested in expressing the Immortals only with the drums and instruments they themselves would've had, which has its own value for me. Authenticity vs epicness is always a question you grapple with concerning history; Sasanian knights for example, wore pink. I always ask myself, if I were to make a Sasanian movie, would I make them wear pink? If you do, no one will take the movie seriously and you lose their epicness, but if you don't, you lose the authenticity, it's a cool question to ponder about.
I suppose the answer is that more agressive drums would have better communicated the idea of the Persian Immortals, but the drums I used better communicate their literal musical reality, since that was the sonic palette at their disposition, I went more for a "what the Immortals could have heard during marching" concept, but a piece expressing our concept of the Immortals themselves would have been equally interesting for sure!
And do you know what instrument your uncle was playing? This one is an Iranian tanbur, maybe it was the same :)
@@faryafaraji his son played tanbur, his daughters kamanche and he himself played setar and I think another kind of tar. But yeah, I totally see your reasoning on the creative choices with your composition and all the rest of it. I’d very much take the Sassanids seriously in pink :P
But in all seriousness, you’re always very thoughtful about how you go about music, so I typically think the end product reflects the best thing you could have composed for a particular track.
Order and harmony > aggression
@Toilet Crusader I meant I don't remember if he was playing tar or setar, or another relative of those stringed instruments, but if I recall, it was a tar. Though I'm fairly certain they played both instruments, but I digress.
the immortals called that cuz they number would be 10,000 at any time first ready army of that time trained for war when a soldier fell or die or retired from old age another will take his place even in battle
