TEHRAN, July 22 (MNA) -- The Tehran Symphony Orchestra conducted by
the Iranian musician Loris Tjeknavorian is to perform "The Messenger
of Love and Hope" symphony in honor of the Prophet Muhammad (S)
at Tehran's Vahdat Hall.
There will be ten evening performances of the concert beginning on
August 10 simultaneously with the anniversary of Be'that, the day
commemorating Muhammad's (S) appointment to Prophethood.
Composed by Seyyed Mehdi Shojaii, the symphony highlights various
stages of the Prophet's life, including the conquest of Mecca, Hajjat
al-Wadaa (the Holy Prophet's Farewell Pilgrimage) and his demise,
Tjeknavorian told Mehr News Agency.
He added, "Several changes have been made to the symphony since its
performance by the Armenian orchestra during a program at the 22nd
Fajr International Music Festival in January. The work named 'Imam Ali
(AS)' composed by Farhad Fakhreddini has been omitted and a new piece
devised by myself on the same theme has been added."
