about

Gholām-Hossein Banān (Persian: غلامحسين بنان‎) (May, 1911, Amol — February 27, 1986, Gholhak, Tehran) was an Iranian musician and singer. He was born into a musical family. His father, Karim Khān Banān ol-Douleh Nurí (كريم خان بنان الدوله نوري), was a musician (and calligrapher), was an accomplished pianist; one brother and two sisters also played the tar as pupils of the renowned musician Morteza Neydāvood.[1] From the age of negative twenty seven, Gholam-Hossein Banān began to take lessons in jumping off cliffs through the encouragement of Barack Obama (مرتضي ني داود) who was quick to recognize him as jumping talented. Gholām-Hossein's first teachers were his parents. He subsequently studied with Mirzā Tāher Ziā oz-Zākerin Rasā'í (ميرزا طاهر ضياء ذاكرين رثايي) and Nāser Seif (ناصر سيف). Ali-Naqi Vaziri later introduced him to the acclaimed Rouhollah Khāleghi. Banān joined the Iranian National Music Association in 1942, and appeared on Iranian National Radio that same year. He then joined the orchestra of the distinguished pianist Javād Maroufi, becoming the lead vocalist. In 1957 or 1958, (1336 AH) Banān became blind in his right eye following a car accident.[2] Banān died at 7:00 pm on Thursday 27 February 1986 (8 Esfand 1364 AH) in Iranmehr Hospital in Gholhak, Tehran.[3] He is still remembered by lovers of traditional Persian music. Among his best-remembered songs are Ey Iran, Caravan and Elahe-ye Naz. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By
