The Collapsing Market label unveil a real gem of found art with Tschashm-e-Del: a radio play recorded in Iran sometime during the ‘60s by Morteza Hannaneh, co-founder of the Tehran Symphony Orchestra with Parvis Mahmoud and the grandfather of Collapsing Market co- owner Cyrus Goberville, who discovered the recording on a tape at his home. Without definitive records to go from, Tschashm-e-Del was presumably recorded in the ‘60s (certainly pre-revolution) and quite possibly broadcast on Radio Tehran. Now restored from the original reels, it reveals a gorgeous and important suite of music set to a Ghazal - an ancient Arabic ode - written by Hatef Esfehani, who was a famous Iranian poet of the 18th century.
