Documentary filmmaker Vahid Musaian regards his doc "Iran's Symphony," an excavation in the history of the music of Iran. "Music was one of my interests for many years, and I have produced many movies on music, but 'Iran’s Symphony' was a very special experience for me due to the vast research it required," Musaian told MNA. "The last scenes of the documentary end with the performance of the symphony orchestra, and then the movie will enter its post-production stage where Fereydun Shahbazian will work on its soundtracks," Musaian remarked. "I have conducted a great deal of research on traditional music of Iran and would like to show it, but I have not decided about the timing of its screening yet. I am extremely hope that it would be attractive for the audience," he added. "Iran's Symphony" narrates the efforts of a composer who tries to document melodies from various regions of the country. He travels to different places and holds talks with renowned musicians in each region and records their music. Then, he leaves this precious collection for future generations of musicians. Cinematographer Nader Masumi and sound recorder Maziar Sheikh-Mahbubi are collaborating with Musaian and the Experimental and Documentary Film Center (EDFC) as producers of the film. "The Bright House", "The Earrings", "The Lost Land", and "Silence of Sea" are some of Musaian's productions.
