[@amirhosein3280]

We in Iran love you 😍💖🤷‍♂️

[@MA-vn6tc]

Remember here he is singing in his late 70s while suffering from advanced cancer !! ... Rest in peace.

[@zohrebanadkooki580]

Dear nina in iranian traditional music we called it question and answer, the vocal ask something and the instruments answer that question and both of them use a group of common notes. Both vocal and music only speak together when they are saying a same thing or when they emphasize on it . Its hard to explain it in English unfortunately but I hope you understood. And i have to say that mohammadreza shajarian is an unforgettable legend of Iranian music in our time god bless him 🙏

[@amigofff221]

🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@Babak7712]

The best explain 👏👏👏👏👏

[@sinagolshan1240]

👍🙏

[@eslamalipour4682]

he was a legend but he's very old here. you need to check out his voice at his young ages to grasp how unbelievably beautiful his voice was. it's very unfair to him to be introduced with this clip.

[@AliSharifiijustwannawritecomen]

آااااااای قربون آدم چیز فهم

[@earth5515]

Or his son

[@maryfirooz]

True 👍

[@Lovelife-lw7fy]

He is STILL a legend . Of course he’s older here and vocal cards , lung capacity , diaphragmatic breathing is much harder as we get older . True that when he was younger , his voice was much smoother but I’ll bet he had cancer here and didn’t know it yet . My brother and shajarian were in the same class . Their teacher came to our house and said that my brother had a much better voice than shajarian but my father said “ I don’t want my son to become a “ motreb”. My dad wouldn’t pay for his lessons . It broke my brother .. he’s 78 and is sad , alone and smokes a lot but my God even now when he sings …. Every family member says : “ your voice … it gives us goose bumps “. It makes me cry … that my father took away what my brother had such talent in and broke him in pieces !

[@heatherbarr9755]

He opens his mouth and at the first note my throat tightens and my eyes fill with tears. Heart wrenching.

[@atatehranchi88]

Sorrowly, this brilliant man passed away about two years ago :( But, we gladly have his incredible son, Homayoon Shajarian, you've already have reacted to his performances

[@hillybilly7165]

Wow , i think he was middle of 70 to 80 years old ! 😳 Such an unbelievable performance ! Rest in peace master...🌹😔💔

[@Reza-sl4jm]

He was 74 or 76 here if I'm not mistaken

[@nalotaller9844]

He passed away and this was I believe his last singing. He has been singing since age 11 and he is in his 70s here still good voice. Also, I just heard his son got father's talent. Superb traditional music and ancient poems. Persian literature is superb and one can not translate it to English will lose it's meaning. 🌺🥰🌺🥰

[@SM-ty2pb]

The left instrument Called kamancheh and the right one is named Tar.

[@arashhekmat3864]

Thank you for such a nice reaction to a heartwarming song.

[@BENYAMIN_QASEMI]

Shajarian 😭😭😭😭♥️♥️♥️♥️🥀💔 the great man.Birth certificate of Iranian music... The pride of Iran.. Venerable teacher.. Happy soul 😢❤

[@desireeban4694]

I don't know these unique things called (instruments) and the song. Sounds like in ancient time, so good!🎶❤️🎶 😊 Fantastic performance!😍

[@Lovelife-lw7fy]

Persia was the largest empire to this date … Cyrus the great wrote the first declaration of human rights and freed the Jewish slaves from Babylon .530 BC. George Washington had that cylinder of human rights translated from the ancient language cuneiform and eventually it be came part of the American constitution/ amendments . Yet the Europeans ( mostly the British ) brought African slaves into America . It’s only been 300 years since slavery ended in the US. Even still to this day america low key racist toward the black community. So yes Persia is very ancient . Persian invented the battery , the first physician who discovered opium as a pain killer was Persian , the first physician to study the body ( a cadaver ) was Persian , those instruments were all created by Persians ( tar means string but has other meanings too ) so guitar / setar etc came from Persia . Setar has 3 strings “ se” means “3”. Persia / iran is where poetry , peace , tolerance and respect for other cultures , gardens , flowers are cherished . Music is THE most important part of Persia . Unfortunately, the British, French and US have destroyed that country countless times for oil and natural gas . They’ve integrated with a sovereign, peaceful nation so many times and now 41-2 years after Carter out khomini in power , Persians are fleeing their own beloved country . Iran and our king had become “ too powerful “ for the British , French and US… so they made sure we lost our kingdom . A king who worked so hard to develop a country that was ripped to shreds by the British , the US, Soviet Union , the US … now it’s being occupied by China and Russia

[@Coffee817]

UNESCO in France presented him with the Picasso Award and in 2006 with the UNESCO Mozart Medal. In 2017, Los Angeles Times cited him as the "Greatest living maestro of Persian classical music".[

[@marzieheskandari5340]

The instrument is Kamancheh. :) It is an Iranian instrument.

[@Babak7712]

Dear Nina. Thank you so much for reviewing this video. At 8:35 he says “ everybody who found or saw his/her friend who can calm the unstable heart , stability & calmness of his/her heart is over” I don’t know could I able to explain that. This is an opposition situation that who can stabilize the heart , leads to instability and excitement of the heart 🌺🌺🌺🌺 so difficult explaining ☺️☺️☺️

[@sepehrebrahimi6692]

He had great voice perfect skill And it was a performance without any editing or even a mic for each one of them he was just unblievble May he rest in peace

[@Samd0411]

Thank you for sharing this wonderful video. Although some of your viewers may not know about Maestro Shajarian is that he was expert in so many traditional Persian musical instruments and their revival within traditional classical Persian music. I loved your passion & appreciation in recognition of the Maestro Shajarian unique vocal quality. I think his musical talents will be taught in universities across the world for centuries to come. Well Done & Thank you so much. 🙏

Mohammad reza Shajarian: the true master of traditional music😎

[@alirezaghadimi7873]

Some parts of the lyrics: You passed over me --- didn't raise your head [to look at me] I told you about love .... you didn't believe I easily sacrificed my heart for you/you didn't even think about loving me back I told you would you smell my flower / You didn't even petal pick it I saw me having jug full of water / although you were thirsty you didn't drink In every song, I meant you [all of my songs were about you]/You didn't look at this garden full of flowers let me know if you liked it I can translate the rest of it as well,

[@shahabhosseini6672]

He was a father of Iranian national music. His death was Shok for Iran music

[@orinocoplay1876]

You are such a great teacher. Thank you for reacting to great Maestro Shajarian RIP.

[@ahmadtali637]

He was the best in Iran. Rest in peace Mohammed🙏 Thank you Nina.

[@hosseinebtehaji4507]

Your reactions to this masterpiece were funny and so entertaining, thank you. BTW, that booklet in front of the Master is just for the lyrics, not for the notes. He knows the notes all by heart, but he doesn't want to forget or make mistakes in singing those poems, considering his age.

[@Babak7712]

Dear Nina. The instrument at his right hand is called “ Taar “ and at the right hand is called “ Kamaan-cheh “. I don’t know about the water floating instrument. I have to tell you this live presentation of master Shajarian is one of the last lives he played. When cancer was expanded whole of his body 🥲🥲🥹🥹🥹🥲🥲

[@englishinsane]

Masterpiece indeed

[@eng.rohullah5059]

You can listen to his "Rabbana". You will be shocked. It is a masterpiece.

The instrument is called "kamooncheh" Kamoon means bow and "cheh" refers to small Same as like wing and winglet

[@English_interviews]

Meaning of last part: dears lets know the value of each other, death is like a stone and human is just like a glass

[@ehsanhedayati]

The instrument on the right side of the screen is called "Iranian Taar" and the second one from left is called "Iranian Kamaanche" There is "Azerbaijani Kamaanche & Taar" too, they are basically the same instruments with slight differences!

[@OmidToka]

[@Nerman12223]

You should read to Dancing in the Sky - Zita the voice kids. Absolutely amazing performance

[@dentalprolab4536]

Dear Nina The name of instrument called KAMANCHE

[@b_reaction_music3900]

Mohammad Reza Shajarian was the father of Homayoun Shajarian, who died a year ago And the name of that instrument is kamanche

[@sajedgolabpars5293]

One of the master pieces of Iranian's traditional music is: por kon piyale ra پر کن پیاله را. It is also known as: jaame tohi جام تهی. Search it in youtube and enjoy about 20 minutes of pure music. And yes, shajarian performed as the singer in his 30-40.

[@saltcurrent9397]

He was great at all of it. Look up his early days performances back in 1950s… here he’s much older and you can tell the age. And the lyrical content of most older Persian lyrics are cry lol 😂

[@safa_jahan]

You got it right! It is all about story telling.

[@aryaei666]

Im from iran. thank you nina🥰❤️🌺🙏

[@David-sb1cg]

You are listening to a legend If he was famous all over the world, people respect him like Whitney Houston, Andrea Bocelli, Beethoven and etc In 1999, UNESCO in France presented him with the Picasso Award and in 2006 with the UNESCO Mozart Medal. In 2017, Los Angeles Times cited him as the "Greatest living maestro of Persian classical music".

[@drdr9533]

Great performance without anything mic and in a very friendly situation. In addition, the middle instrument is "kamancheh" which is near to the instrument in the violin family. Also, the instrument player, who is on the left of the singer, is playing "tar" which is near to instruments in the guitar family.

[@ahwanax10]

he was invented so many instruments like that one he also create so many types of singing and tahrir in the classic persian music he is a legend in Iran

[@VahidGovahi]

you are such an expert , I love your channel , Just note that Mr Shajarian was almost 75 when he did this performance , and I am sure you know his son , Homayoun shajarian a greatest vocalist in Iran

[@billydylan4084]

its between poetry and story telling. sometimes it takes days to finish with 2 singers. none stop.

[@saeedmarashi8992]

Really unbeliveable
