Israeli Pianist performs Persian Composition


In 1978 the Israeli pianist Amiram Rigai performed various piano works in an album from various countries including Persia (Iran).
This piece is one of the most famous works of Aminollah (André) Hossein named "Persian Fable".
The piece is also known by its French title "Prelude et legende persane". Aminollah Hossein is one of the pioneers of Persian polyphonic music.
You can listen to Israeli interpretation of "Persian Fable" here:


Aminollah Hossein composed this piece in 1956 and the score was published on that time in Paris with financial support of Persian Ministry of Culture and Art.
Hossein passed away in Paris in 1983.
The actor Robert Hossein is his son.
