Back in Iran, as a kid whenever I played too much video games my mom would send me to our neighbor's house to help with her carpet. She taught me how to weave a carpet and she would also sing all the time when we were weaving. I remember those days very clearly. This is a brilliant idea and a brilliant performance. Thanks.
I'm Tunisian and as a kid I used to help my grandmother weaving carpets. She had a special room for weaving in her house . All the old houses in Tunisia have a weaving room.
I am born and raised American, and it is a a heavy burden that many in my country do not understand the beauty of the art that is produced from the east. What a moving song, I do not know the words; however, there is something within me that connects more with this than most music coming out of America today.
I had heard about "naghshe khani", and I had imagined how this was many kid's childhood "home sound" in Iran. I had heard perhaps a few phrases from someone remembering her mother singing it when she was a child, and ever since I had hoped that someone would document these sounds before they fade away into the passage of the time. Thanks so much for this wonderful work and the documentary as well.
Thanks!❤❤❤❤❤❤ To all of you my beloved friends. Although, I may not have heard your ethereal music and singing, lyrics, before, I have watched documentaries of Iran's beautiful countryside and the snowcapped mountains and the making of ancient instruments. Music, art and creativity are the glues that hold our world together and I bow my head with reverence for yours. 🙏❤️🌍🌿🕊🎵🎶🎵🎶
I'm listening on repeat. I love this so, so much. The singer is so wonderful mash'Allah, so centered and serene, and the voice beautiful and honest, not fancied up. The documentary is next on my list,
Wer schon mal selbst einen Teppich gewebt hat, weiß wie sehr man in dieser Arbeit versinken kann. Die Musik ist schmerzhaft schön. Viel Kraft für alle Frauen im Iran.
So inspiring.🌿 I found your music while I making tapestry carpet designs with my sewing machine. Serendipity. 🌸 I feel like weaving is like a common language of all the women in the world. Whichever country you’re reading about you’ll find in its history some woman’s weaving and make amazing art pieces. 🌿
Many ancient woven tapestries can be seen in museums or archives. Our ancestors were fruitful in this knowledge. Their hands built many civilizations. 🙌🏿🙌🏾🙌🏽🙌🙌🏼🙌🏻 ♀️ 🌹
If I could like this video every time I listen to this it wold have a hundred more likes 🧡 Listening to this music reminds me that everting is alright and life is beautiful. True magic 🧡
Que hermosura 😍 la música y la voz absolutamente maravillosos, un bálsamo para mis oídos y mi corazón. Gracias por dar visibilidad a las mujeres tejedoras de Irán y de todo el planeta. Una Obra Maestra. Bendiciones 🙏
Magnifique !!!! Même si les parole m'échappent, il est aisé de ressentir la profondeur et la nostalgie de la voix humaine. Je suis Kabyle et je connais l'importance de la femme dans la transmission. J'ai l'impression que la règle est identique dans votre belle culture.
I dont speak this beautiful language, but I am Muslim and understand the refrain..."There is nothing worthy of worhip except, the ONE and only, God." I want people to realize this reality, and her understanding of this reality, is where the depth of her song springs. May He guide us all to what is most pleasing to Him.
Es ist unbeschreiblich was ich beim hören dieser Musik spüre. Obwohl ich kein Wort verstehe, geht die Musik und die wunderbaren Stimme dieser Frau, direkt in meinem Herzen. Ich schließe die Augen und sehe vor mir ,Bilder aus längst vergangenen Zeiten!!! Danke für diesen wunderbaren Beitrag! ❤
Gracias por tan bello homenaje a tantas mujeres que con sus manos tejedoras han construido memoria. Tristemente en mi país los tejedores tampoco son bien remunerados. Aplausos para tan bonito trabajo. Bello tejido Maryam y hermosa voz. Todos los demás excelentes músicos. Gracias

i'm only 15 mins in but so far it's one of the most delicious things I've ever heard in my life.. what an incredible combination.. I've seen line ups that look like this before but they tend to playa few minutes of delicious taxim then slip into a predictable plod.. this is just hanging in that sweet spot for me.. free emotionally expression.. a joy..thank you all..
Beautiful truth song of a life of heart giving beauty with a lifework of providing for family in community. A beautiful soul song that touches my heart and connects me with my love of textiles, where I meet and share and support in all world countries, thank you for this beautiful performance, the weaver, the film of weavers, the songs, and the musicians that create the context for exquisite sound heart soul song.
wow, bringing it back to that lullaby at the end really brought me to tears. thank you so much for this deeply heartfelt performance. may the women of iran be free. woman life freedom!
Not only a beautiful concept for a concert but also masterful musicianship all around! I was lucky enough to see percussionist Joss Turnbull play live in Germany a couple times. His performance is very understated in this show but he is an absolute powerhouse musician!
Thank you for appreciating this beyond words music, I grew up with this in Iran, Tehran, I so miss it , touches so deep down your soul, is divine 😢🤦🏻♀️👌🎶😏
Truly amazing idea as well as its execution where the essence is not compromised because of nuances. And how it has elicited so many responses, each showing a connect to one's deep rooted values. Beautiful ❤🙏
I'm truly impressed by this unique project and idea, which has deeply touched my heart. The emotional voice of the singer, the beautiful music and songs, and the nice decorations all make it wonderful.
That is breathtakingly beautiful. But on starting to breathe again, I reaalized that it is amazingly meditative as well. Thank you so much for the performance
Some of the most beautiful pieces of music that I've ever heard. Thank you for sharing this and for the generous translations. The concert is just stunning.
🥰🥰❤🧡💚💙💜🤎Taking me back to my childhood, 60 years ago, when visiting my Birth place, and watching grils and women weaving courful carpets, Heart touching art work, Thanks every one and appriciate , wish you ths best

Pourquoi est-ce si rare d'associer l'art manuel à l'art musicale ou théâtrale ? Cela existe avec ce qu' on appelle les performances qui associent le graphisme à la musique mais mais la confection d'objets artisanaux en live me semble trop peu envisagée dans le spectacle vivant.
Everything was beautiful, I just wished the percussion person wasn't so caught up with his electronics and "effects" and actually played the drum... He seemed out of synch with the rest.
