Morteza Mahjubi (1900-1965) was a Iranian pianist & composer who developed a unique tuning system for the piano which enabled the instrument to be played in all the different modes and dastgahs of traditional Persian art music. Known as Piano-ye Sonnati, this technique allowed Mahjubi to express the unique ornamental and monophonic nature of Persian classical music on this western instrument – mimicking the tar, setar & santur and extracting sounds from the piano which are still unprecedented to this day.
An active performer and composer from a young age, Mahjubi made his most notable mark as key contributor and soloist for the Golha (Flowers of Persian Song and Poetry) radio programmes. These seminal broadcasts platformed an encyclopaedic wealth of traditional Persian classical music and poetry on Iranian national radio between 1956 until the revolution in 1979.

Aus Zügen geworfen, unter der Erde verscharrt, in Thermoskannen versteckt – die letzten Nachrichten und Zeitzeugnisse von NS-Opfern gegen das Vergessen bilden einen Atlas der Individualität. Wir werden die Dimension des Holocaust nicht begreifen ohne den Blick darauf, wer vernichtet wurde. Wir müssen die Aufzeichnungen bergen, wiederbeleben und weitergeben. Sie sind der Imperativ des Humanismus: Seht die Menschen! Wir müssen das Böse fürchten lernen.
Es war möglich.
Es ist möglich.
Es bleibt möglich.

Ich denk an dich.
“Gabi and I had some grand plans. We wanted to make a new DAF album. We were thinking of it being a mix of new tracks created on the fly and a selection of our best hidden gems left over from the 80s. We were really raring to do it. We were certain the album was a done deal. We wanted to finish producing it this summer. I listened to all our old bare-bones from back then again – absolute treasures! Gabi departed this life suddenly, a life he loved so much, and I’ve resolved to produce all of these unheard jewels for DAF and Gabi in spite of it all. They were written while we were sharing an apartment on Holland Road in London (1981/1982). I dedicate the song Ich denke an dich (‘I Think of You’) to Gabi.” (Robert Görl, May 2020)
