Postcards :Marjan Nelson on the Power of Persian Music
Persian New Zealander Marjan Nelson traces the roots of Persian music in this episode of Postcards. As a child growing up in Iran, Marjan was immersed in a household where music was woven into the fabric of daily life. Despite the turmoil that the country faced-particularly the Iran-Iraq war during her early years-her family fostered a safe, loving environment where music, dance, poetry, and song flourished.
