Modigliani

Another movie that really impressed and inspired me!

The film is a free adaptation of the life of Amedeo Modigliani (July 12, 1884 – January 24, 1920) Italian painter.

It's the story of his bitter rivalry with Pablo Picasso, and his tragic romance with Jeanne Hebuterne. The movie has also one of the best sound tracks of all time.

I have selected a small part of the movie that depicts the depth of a human beings' love to another:

The Flower Girl ............................................................... دختر گل فروش


آلبوم دختر گل فروش، باصداي علي جهاندار و آهنگسازي استاد حسن کسايي منتشر شد


استاد علی جهاندار یکی از شاگردان بزرگ و تحسین شده استاد شجریان هستند که تا کنون سه آلبوم به نام های "صبح مشتاقان"، " نقش پندار" و آلبوم جدید "دختر گل فروش" را منتشر کرده اند. علاوه بر اين ضبط آلبوم هاي "صنما" با آهنگسازي جواد ضرابيان و "ساکن جان" نيز با آهنگسازي حسين پرنيا را به پايان رسانده اند که این آلبوم ها هم اکنون در مرحله ميکس به سر مي برند، اما هنوز آماده انتشار نشده اند و تا سال آینده در اختیار علاقه مندان قرار خواهند گرفت.
استاد جهاندار در سال 1327 در روستاى شمام،
شهر رستم آباد
( شهرستان رودبار) دیده به جهان گشودند. با توجه به علاقه شدیشان به موسیقی، و نبود امکانات در زادگاهشان، فقط می توانستند با تقلید از موسیقی های پخش شده به خواندن بپردازند. ایشان مدتی بعد در استان خوزستان، به اداره فرهنگ و هنر وقت در اهواز مراجعه و از سال1348 با گروه فرهنگ و هنر اهواز همکارى کردند و از سال 54 از طریق کاست هاى استاد شجریان به تمرین شیوه وی پرداختند و از سال 62 نزد استاد شجریان رفتند و به صورت مداوم تا سال 71از آموزه هاى وی بهره بردند. مدتی بعد نیز با استاد حسن کسایی (استاد مسلم نواختن نی ایرانی) آشنا شده و اجراهای مشترکی با استاد شجریان در برخی کشورها داشته اند.
لازم به ذکر است که این کاست، یعنی آلبوم "دختر گلفروش" اولین همکاری استاد کسایی با یک خواننده درساخت آهنگ و انتخاب اشعار و در مجموع ارائه کامل یک آلبوم می باشد.

در اینجا به درخواست دوستان از آلبوم "دختر گلفروش" گوشه هایی از آهنگ "مست" (یکی از ترانه های زیبای اسماعیل نواب صفا) را که در آمد ابو عطا به سبک حبیب شاطر حاجی و همچنین قسمت هایی از خود آهنگ "دختر گل فروش" که از ترانه های زیبای بیژن ترقی است را آورده و امیدوارم پوزش مرا به خاطر پایین آوردن کیفیت آهنگ ها بپذیرید

Atonement

"Atonement"

A movie you must see!
I watched this un-f**kin-believable piece of masterpiece last night. The story is about love, misjudgment, war...

The music is perfect, thats why it won Oscar of the best music written for motion pictures!
It really made me think a while after watching it. I rate it 8 out of 10 and recommend it to all movie lovers! :star: :star: :star: :star: :star: :star: :star: :star:
And, something to add; I want you to watch it just as a movie, not a history documentation or anything else. It has many cinematic views that I am sure you will agree with me and enjoy it!

درباره تصویر و اشعار زیر چه نظری دارید؟ فکر می کنید به کدام جنبه ازعشق اشاره شده است؟


"A mighty pain to love it is,
And 'tis a pain that pain to miss;
But of all pains, the greatest pain
It is to love, but love in vain."





سیـب سـرخی را بـه من بخشیـد و رفـت
عاقبـت بر عشـق مـن خنـدیـد و رفـت
اشـك در چشمــان سـردم حلقــه زد
بـی مـروت گریـه ام را دیــد و رفـت
چشـم از مـن كنـد و دل از مـن بریـد
حـال بیمـار مــرا فهـمیــد و رفـت
بـا غـم هجــرش مــدارا مـی كنـم
گـر چـه بر زخمــم نمك پاشید و رفـت

Zodiac

WHAT IS ZODIAC?
CLICK here to read this in Farsi
A band of the celestial sphere extending about eight degrees north and south of the ecliptic, representing the portion of the sky within which the paths of the Sun, the Moon, and the planets are found. In astrology, the zodiac is divided into 12 equal segments, each of which is named after a constellation through which the ecliptic passes in that region of the sky. The traditional beginning point of constellations is Aries, followed in cylindrical order by Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpios, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces.
