The Second Piece from the Project “Eight Years and These Days” — “Crimson Horizon” by Hooshang Kamkar and Vocals by Shahram Nazeri Released

Roudaki Foundation has released the second piece from the project “Eight Years and These Days” titled “Crimson Horizon”, which was performed in 1983 with vocals by the master vocalist Shahram Nazeri.

Roudaki Foundation: this piece was made available to the general public, researchers, and enthusiasts for free, as part of the Foundation’s ongoing musical project aimed at honoring the legacy of resistance music.

This work was composed by Hooshang Kamkar based on a poem by Moshfegh Kashani, and performed by the Tehran Symphony Orchestra and Choir in July 1983, with vocals by Shahram Nazeri.

The project “Eight Years and These Days” has been initiated by the Roudaki Foundation to preserve and reflect the musical heritage of the Iran–Iraq war (Sacred Defense) era — showcasing the sincere solidarity of artists with the soldiers and defenders of the homeland during those years and days.

More works by prominent figures of traditional and orchestral Iranian music will be released in the future as part of this project.

All citizens and enthusiasts can freely access the published pieces by visiting the Roudaki Foundation’s information portal at:
