Dance also accompanies these songs during events. Like other facets of Iranian art, Iranian music is inspired by the nature and pure beauty of its sound. You can listen to a song, close your eyes and find yourself in the middle of the Central Desert, in the Northern Forests, floating on the blue Persian Gulf, or flying freely in the sky as a bird.�
