Iradj Sahbai - 14 Persian Folk Songs, arranged for Flute Duet by Mehrdad Gholami. From the arranger: "The first time I heard Iradj Sahbai’s folksongs for piano, performed by Peyman Yazdanian, I was immediately yearning to hear more of Sahbai’s clever use of dissonance and his masterful rhythmic displacement of the melodies. I started thinking what if we could really feel the crunch of these dissonances? I started arranging the collection in form of duets for two flutes and realized, in addition to the dissonances, I can add a third dimension, which is flute’s ability to hold a note and create a difference tone. Eventually, each movement became an etude on the extended techniques of the flute." - Mehrdad Gholami
