Jalal Amirpour Saeed in the introduction of this book stated: “Iranian traditional music training has always been subject to social and cultural changes and has had many ups and downs under different time conditions according to the society’s approach to this art. It can be said that one of the most important training problems is the lack of communication between the generations, so that many students in this field of art have nothing to do with the music pieces of their previous generations. This problem is not only due to the cultural issues of the society but also due to the lack of training methods and assistance in accordance with the spirit of the new generation.
