Tax included.
Released: 22/07/22
This second collection of microtonal and monophonic Persian-tuned piano improvisations by the Iranian pianist Morteza Mahjubi (1900-1965) is, like the first (released last year), one of the most beautiful and transcendent albums I have ever heard. Cut from Iranian national radio broadcasts that Mahjubi made for the Golha programmes between 1956 and 1965, Selected Improvisations from Gohla, Pt. II is yet more proof of an incredibly important talent “ and one which we in the West might never have got to hear, were it not for the sterling work of Jane Lewisohn and the Golha Project, as part of the British Library's Endangered Archives programme, and the consistently excellent record label Death is Not the End, through which it's released. Sublime.
