Local Music of Iran and Luri Culture
Local Music of Iran
Iranian local music, also known as folk or traditional music, is deeply rooted in the culture and customs of various regions across Iran. This music is traditional and passed down from generation to generation. Iranian local music encompasses a variety of genres tied to different geographical and ethnic regions, such as Luri, Kurdish, Azerbaijani, Khorasani, and Southern music.

Luri Culture
Luri culture is one of the richest sources of local music in Iran. The Luri people reside in the southwestern part of Iran and are divided into dialects such as Lorestani, Bakhtiari, and Southern Luri. Luri music plays a significant role in everyday life, particularly in Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad. Luri songs are based on themes like love, nature, hunting, mourning, migration, work, and religious beliefs.

Local Instruments: While specific local instruments are not commonly mentioned in Luri music, traditional Iranian instruments like the dutar and tombak are also used in this region.

State of Oblivion: Unfortunately, traditional Luri music is facing oblivion, and the artists from this region are not adequately appreciated.

Importance of Local Music in Iran
Iranian local music is not only a part of the country's cultural identity but is also recognized as a global intangible heritage. For example, the music of North Khorasan has been registered in UNESCO's Intangible Cultural Heritage list. This music, with its simplicity and authenticity, reflects the beautiful landscapes of Iran and is deeply intertwined with people's beliefs and emotions. #folk #folksong #iranianmusic #موسیقی #محلی #لری #شاد
