Born out of a special friendship, improvisation is the guiding principle. Motamedi, a celebrated singer in Iran, is a masterful improviser and has a head full of Iranian poetry - he gets inspired by the mood of the music and then chooses a poem to improvise freely over it. This album contains pieces that fit the more spiritual, traditional Persian repertoire, with texts by Hafez and others, as well as a number of more worldly songs on which the trio is joined by violin, cello and clarinet. Recorded in hi-res audio in a former church, the tracks have a crisp and lifelike quality. Motamedi's unrivaled vocals are matched with rare instrumentation; Rembrandt Frerichs plays old church organs and antique fortepianos, Planjer a whisperkit and Overwater a violone. The collaboration between the Rembrandt Trio and Motamedi becomes an adventurous journey through the colorful Persian musical landscape, where musicians from different continents find a shared language in music and improvisation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Mohammad Motamedi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40625878761543,"sku":"43675258","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2976\/0132\/files\/4235508-3144945_28e2f127-8df4-471b-97ea-2bfb082facbe.jpg?v=1712492217","url":"https:\/\/tower.com\/products\/frerichs-motamedi-rembrandt-trio-intizar-songs-of-longing","provider":"Tower Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
