Dareneh-Jaan/Aziz-Joon.. Leila-Leila, Jaan-e-Maryam. Lala-ec About the Author... The five ballads are selected from Persian folk music. They are arranged here in their purest and most direct form. They speak directly to people and although old, they remain popular with Persians to this day. The ballads originate from various parts of Persia where different dialects are used. Inthese arrangements | have tried to give the melodies the same nuance and embellishments that a singer would. All the ballads except Dareneh-Jaan/Aziz Joon begin with a short introduc- tion establishing the tempo and mood. In Jaan-e-Maryam, the muted strumming of the melody is an imitation of string tremolo. The arrangement of the Lala-eeis inspired by a version for choir by the late Iranian composer, violinist, and conductor, Rouben Gregorian. ‘The Five Popular Persian Balladshave been recorded by Lily Afshar on A Jugof Wine and Thou, Summit Records, DCD 236.Gol-e-Gandome de 60 Molto cantabile a dl em NT) oD Composed by Lily Afshar ? ~via t: On? 3 = = Fo. ; = 727 E dolce . i } — ——————SS mf (©1998 Lily Aft.
