After the religious ceremony was over, the people moved to another room for a concert of traditional Persian music. There were three musicians: one on violin, one on the tar, and another on a hand drum. I love Persian music and this was a unique chance for me to hear it live. During the concert when the music got more energetic, an elderly lady from the congregation got up and started dancing. This embarrassed some of the attendees (perhaps her family) but she kept boogeying. You see two images of Persian Disco Granny at the top of the page.
