Sarahbori Dugoh from SELECTED PIECES by MUNOJAT YULCHIEVA

from the modal suite in maqom Dugoh of the shashmaqom repertoire; gazal by A. Navoi
A beautiful and touching blend of transverse flute nay and fiddle ghijak on the rhythmic cycle marked by the doira introduce this well known an beautiful classic from the corpus of the modal suite in maqomdugoh. The sarakhbor is an introductive vocal piece out of the first section (shu’ba) of a shashmaqom suite composed in a “high” and classical style. The verses from a gazal composed by the great Persian and Chagatai language poet Alisher Navoiy (Herat, 1441-1501) reinforce such a “high” and classic style of the composition.
