Description:
Rasht (Persian: رشت) is the capital of Gilan province in northwestern Iran and the largest city along the Caspian sea coast (37°17′N 49°35′E).

Welcome to the "Rasht & Guilan music" group!


In this region, music depicts the life of a people who live in the woods, love nature, and lead a simple and easy life, Gilan music is mostly in the form of "shoor", and its songs are mostly in the form of "dashti" and rarely "chahargah" and "shooshtari"; they abound in splendid and expressive scenes, picturing the green and fertile land, woods, farms, and paddy fields of Gilan.
Vocal music is mainly rooted in the east of Gilan, that is, in the mountainous area of this part of the country.
In Gilan, instrumental music is generally played on special occasions and ceremonies, and the instruments which are used are the "laleh" (the shepherds' reed), "sorna", and "naghareh".
The Gilan "reezmaghan" includes the divans, the ditties, and the tunes which ae mostly sung by the women; these get their subjects from the real life of the people living in this region, and they are sung by themselves and handed down by word of mouth from generation to generation.
Talesh Music
This music belongs to the northwestern part of Gilan, especially around the cities of Rezvanshahr, Masal,Shanderman, Asalem, and Hashtpar. Talesh music takes its form from a popular song called "dastoon",which is instrumental as well. These songs are extremely sad and melancholic, and they deeply affect the listener.
