2008 release. Back in 1990 while Fabrizio De AndrŠ was releasing “Le Nuvole”, Prince released Graffiti Bridge. At the same time in the turbulent Iranian Islamic Republic the young Yalda was taking her first piano lessons. During her studies she passed a competition which allowed her to subscribe to the University of Music in Teheran. There she started playing the setar (an ancient Persian four-chord instrument similar to the mandolin) and she wrote a thesis about the musicotherapy of the Iranian rural areas. (by Sensible Records)
