🎼 "Bint El Shalabiya" Performance by Renowned Iranian Tar Master Ali Ghamsari in Istanbul (Balat), Türkiye.
El Shalabiya (Pretty Girl) “Bint El Shalabiya” is best known from the version sung by the Lebanese icon Fairouz (1935 – present). The song is also known as a folk melody from the Levant (Syria, Lebanon) region before the area had split into autonomous countries.
Iranian musician Ali Ghamsari has staged a sit-in outside the Damavand power plant in protest against US and Israeli threats to target vital infrastructure.
Ghamsari said he would remain at the site and play music there in hopes of helping prevent attacks on energy facilities.
