Here, for the first time, Mel Bay Publications offers Persian folk music arranged for the guitar by the Iranian-born, award winning international concert guitarist, Lily Afshar. This collection includes four love songs and a lullaby. These arrangements are extremely lyrical as they depict a singer's nuances and embellishments. Tremolo, harmonic, and muted strumming techniques are used in these tasteful arrangements. Of these five short pieces, four begin with an introduction that establishes the tempo and mood of the piece. These works are ideal for guitarists interested in international programming, those who have never heard Persian music, or for those who are familiar with it and simply love it. Written in standard notation only for the intermediate to advanced guitarist.
