Detailed Description
On March 21, 2008, Iranian singer, composer, and author, Shusha Guppy, died of cancer in London. Read Roger Scruton's moving obituary for her in The Guardian by clicking the link at the bottom of this page.
It has been said that Shusha possesses "the dark beauty of Persia and a voice to match." This recording, dedicated entirely to her Persian roots, captures a performance of exquisitely beautiful songs of love, betrothal, separation and mystical wisdom, sung in the intimate and sensitive style that has made Shusha an internationally known performer. The songs of an ancient and noble civilization; the bonding of thousands of shared visions. Bask in the richness of the flute and zarb accompaniment and immerse yourself in the cool, soothing timbre of Shusha's voice.
