Welcome to my channel! My goal is to showcase musical traditions from all over the globe, regardless of culture, ethnicity and religion. I want this channel to be like a musical world museum, a library of musical traditions from all over the world and all over time. I make three general types of content here: arrangements of historical/world music that respects each culture and time period’s authenticity, original compositions that are more creative but still utilise aspects of world music, and informative videos where I explore certain subjects using academic research and sources.
Malan Bar Kir - Kurdish Song
Vocals & arrangement by Farya Faraji. This is a traditional Kurdish song in memory of the victims of the Dersim massacre. The arrangement is entirely Anatolian in nature and revolves around the saz family of Anatolia. A short neck bağlama is used with a divan saz, the largest member of the saz family, a cura saz, its smallest member, and the current contemporary form of the kopuz. The Maqam is Bayat, and a subtle Western chord progression in the form of arpeggiated chords is provided by the kopuz as the song goes on.
Lyrics in Kurdish:
Malan bar kir lê lê çûne waran lê
Dînê lê dînê lê Dînara min
Goştê me xwar lê lê mişk û maran lê
Keçê lê rîndê lê Hewala min
Ez sewî me lo lo ber desta me lo
Delalo delalo delalê min
Brîndar im lo lo bê xwedî me lo
Hewalo hewalo hewalê min
Malan bar kir lê lê koç bi rê ket lê
Dînê lê dînê lê Dînara min
Dilêm eşiya lê lê agir pê ket lê
Keçê lê rîndê lê bermaliya min
English translation:
They moved, moved to foreign lands
You crazy, crazy, crazy of mine,
Mice and snakes ate the meat of our bodies,
You girl, you beauty, friend of mine
I am an orphan, I am a captive,
You handsome, handsome one of mine,
I am wounded, I am forlorn,
You friend, friend of mine
They moved, moved to foreign lands
You crazy, crazy, crazy of mine
My heart aches and is set on fire
You girl, beauty, my companion

La Guillotine Permanente - French Revolution Song
Переглядів 18 тис.14 днів тому
Vocals & arrangement by Farya Faraji. This is a song dating from the French Revolution. I arranged this piece in the style of the era, using a harpsichord, an instrument at the very end of its days as its usage was dying out by the late 1700's in mainstream Western music, a fortepiano, and an ensemble of cellos and violins. I chose to arrange this in a chamber music style rather than the more t...

This arrangement is mostly rooted in Eastern Armenian musical features prevalent in the Caucasus, as can be seen by the usage of the tar, a foundational instrument of Armenian music in the Caucasus. A duduk also accompanies the main melody. Whilst many if not most modern versions render the melody in the Western minor, I decided to keep the original traditi...

Byzantine music to many extends sounds Turkish or the other way round. The Ottoman Turks i herited many Byzantine elements.

О Боже... Остановись, пока можешь, Прежде чем дойти до последнего Матрёшка. Остановись, но не прекращай искать, Нет, пока ты не узнаешь, что она там. Как вы узнаете? Позвольте ей встать перед вами. Пусть она отдохнет в любознательности Теоретическое деление пополам И остаться навсегда Возможность. Если ты позволишь ей остаться, Она останется целой И непрерывный Как флегматичный, стоический Вся заметка Воспетое невидимым будущим Что обязательно и произойдет. Если Ты сломаешь ее, Фрактальная трещина Неизменно будет вести В тысячу зеркальных коридоров, Или так кажется. Я говорю это еще раз, указывая к русской кукле-- Оставь ее в покое И не переворачивай страницу Или прочитать другую строку Потому что ты не знаешь Если это последний Или что все это значит 🐇
If this is actually what Renaissance French music sounded like, exactly like what is heard here, then I want to listen to it every day. I can't get enough of the intro with the harpsichord and the outro with the viola de gamba. The percussive beat is also fire 🔥.

Very beautiful.. hello from Syria 🙏✝️
Her what is your type of music Me:
Guys will look at this and be like: I'm literally him.
FARYA ... I first heard this song 🎵 when it was only 2 months old and had 45k viwes. Now, almost a year in, the fact that this song has 5.1 million views, has been remixed, and is considered the soundtrack for a movie about Belisarius that doesn't even exist (yet) is a testimony to this MASTERPIECE!!!! Love from Africa 🌍, awsome work!!!
I’m astounded by each of your releases. I find myself listening to music I never had an interest in with every release. Any plans for a Visigoth piece or a Spanish symphony? Starting with as close as possible to what Gothic music might have sounded like and transitioning to Reconquista era Spanish music?

Amazing work Farya. The crusaders massacre at Jerusalem in "The City Falls" hits hard, but I am glad it was included, that event shouldn't be forgotten!
Please make the full Palästinalied in Latin with voice of Farya Faraji and Skaldic Bard.
This is the collab we were waiting for.
