TEHRAN -- Iranian singer Shahram Nazeri honored the renowned Azerbaijani vocalist, Alim Qasimov with an Iranian flag on the second night of his performance at Tehran’s Vahdat Hall on Monday.
Addressing the audience on stage, Nazeri said, “I am proud to have honored the singer. Tonight is a great night for me since I felt like I was in heaven during his performance.”
Nazeri added, “Music is nothing but love and if this feeling does not exist in a singer, it is impossible for the singer’s work to impress the audience.”
He expressed his hope that all the musicians especially in Iran would adore each other and transfer this feeling to people.
Author Mahmud Dowlatabadi and a large number of cineastes including Parviz Parastuii, Golab Adineh, Fatemeh Motamed-Arya, Behnaz Jafari and Pantea Bahram attended the concert.
Alim Qasimov and his daughter Fargana Qasimova along with the Tehran Wind Orchestra gave their performances on January 11, 12 and 13.
The concert was to be a two-night performance, but an additional night was added due to the high number of Iranian enthusiasts and their warm reception.
Many Azeri popular songs were performed during the concerts conducted by Javid Majlesi along with Tehran Wind Orchestra director Sina Zokaii.
