Artistic Section

Art In general and the art of music in a special way is considered as one of the fundamental layers and pillars of culture.

Art as a whole identifies and represents the nature of man and his boundless spiritual dimensions. In fact, human is defined and recognized by art. It can be said that art is a reflection of human nature and all humans are created as artists and art lovers. Of course manifestation of artistic features was not and is not the same in all humans and this difference displays the beauty of different dimensions and types of art.

Art has other aspects, including the art of Calligraphy; Drawing; Architecture; Sculpting and especially performing arts... it mentioned. Although the leaven of art is placed in the nature of all human beings, it is obvious that for its fertility and flourishing there is a strong need for education and actually nurturing is felt.

Foundation is based on the commitment to work harder in the field of art.
The foundation in its short life has shined in various artistic fields despite the lack of facilities and immigration conditions.

Music

Music is one of the graceful branches of art. Human from the beginning of creation until now, loneliness, express its concerns and wishes more with voice, song, look and role It reflects and gives. The elders of our religious knowledge consider the world as a fabric of sound and the roots of existence is based on it.

Great Bedil says:
O Singer, Now is the time of roar and sound
The base of existence rests on the shoulders of sound

Another great man says: "If the world speaks, it begins with music..."
In the religious worldview, all creation is words and speech and the whole world is speech, and it fills the world with sound and music. Maybe with this ear, we don't hear it less or at all! And to hear it another ear and superior intelligence is needed.

Classical Music Education and the need to spread and expand it

Our classical music has more religious content and also contains knowledge and commitment. Therefore, the necessity is felt more in development.

Gormani Ceremony

In the music of the subcontinent and Afghanistan there is a tradition called "Gormani".

In the teaching of this music, which is still based on the transfer of experience from the master to the student, the student must receive a thread of devotion from the master in a formal meeting after going through a series of steps.

This thread which is usually made of silk is a chain link between masters that is passed from one to another.
Gor or black sugar with which master and student sweeten their palate is a sign of the sweetness of their relationship.

The veterans of the music field present in the gathering take turns putting the thread of devotion on the forehead, kissing it and praying until it finally reaches the hand of the master with whom the student is supposed to be his deciple. The master ties it to the student's right hand and the sweets is spread in the gathering.

The main reliance in this tradition is on politeness and sincerity. Amir Khusrow Balkhi Foundation during its activities honored this meaningful music tradition by veterans.
