Masti noz (Coquetries of Drunkenness), Zi boghi ishq (From the Garden of Love), Siminbadana dar ghussai ruzgor (A Silver Body in the Pain of the World) e Dur mashav (Do Not Go Away) (four traditional pieces, arranged by Sohiba Davlatshoeva e Aqnazar Alovatov)

This video presents excerpts of a performance held by the Badakhshan Ensemble. This ensemble comes from Badakhshan, a remote area of Southeastern Tajikistan, among the high peaks of Pamir. Relative isolation contributed to keep original features to this music. Furthermore, most of the people of Badakhshan are Ismailite Shiites unlike their Sunnite neighbours, and consider the Aga Khan as their spiritual guide (imâm).
The musicians of the Badakhshan ensemble live in Khorog, the capital of the region with 40.000 inhabitants, and are professional musicians. In the video the musicians are playing Dur Mashav, the last piece of a medley of four, rearranged by the two leaders of the ensemble, Aqnazar Alovatov and Sahiba Davlatshaeva. The texts of these four ghazal are drawn by poems of Divân-i Shams-i Tabriz by Mowlâna Jalâl-ud-Dîn Rûmî (Balkh, 1207-Konya, 1273). While the musicians perform Dur Mashav Sahiba Davlatshaeva dances, whirling in the Pamir style.
The performance, was organized by the Intercultural Institute for Comparative Music Studies of Fondazione Giorgio Cini, in cooperation with the Aga Khan Trust for Culture – Music Initiative, and the Department of Filosofia e Beni Culturali of Univeristà Ca’ Foscari University di Venezia, and took place within the International Conference on Music, Arts, and Spirituality in Central Asia, scientific committee: Anna Contadini, Giovanni De Zorzi, Rachel Harris, Alexandre Papas.
