Bass on Farsi
by Rhoy Pamparo on Mar.31, 2009, under Melodic Insights
Last week, the Persians celebrated their New Year and I had the privilege of playing bass for the service that was held at Bayview Glen Alliance Church by our Farsi-speaking community. And if you live in Toronto and know how to speak/read Farsi, you can visit their website at http://mohabat.org
I really enjoyed playing with these guys. Have a listen and even though you can’t understand the words, I hope that you will be blessed by the music. Without further ado, here are the tracks:
- Come, Now Is The Time To Worship
- Hayatee Tazeh
- I Could Sing of Your Love
- Kalaamat
- Shout To The Lord
- Rooneh Oo Dar Mast (Heaven Is In My Heart)
- Sarayeem Isa Khodavand
- Shokr Bar Nameh Isa
Many thanks to the following musicians for making my life so much easier:
Ramsin Youhanna – Vocals, Piano, Keyboards
Luis Vasconez – Guitars (Electric/Acoustic)
Zee Nasser – Drums/Percussions
Sean Pinage – Drums/Percussions
And of course, to Daniel Nasser for not only for managing the soundboard for us but also for sending me these audio tracks that he recorded using his iPod! Don’t you love technology!

Sounds good, bro! Fun to switch instruments every now and again. A couple weekends ago we had our youth team lead, and they don’t have a bass player. So I got to hang out in the back and play bass. Loved it.

@karl – thanks bro. definitely fun, i am part-time bassist with our worship team. at least once a month and it’s a great break from playing guitar. Glad you liked playing bass. It’s a very cool instrument that is not as prominent but you would know right away when it’s gone
