Ghamsari, who is known as prominent Iranian tar player and composer, performed while seated on a traditional mat and playing tar, which is a musical instrument central to Persian classical music. His performance was captured in a video which has since gone viral on social media.
The significance of Ghamsari’s performance lies in the fact that he played the instrument in front of Iran’s largest power plant Damavand power plant which also provides half of Tehran’s electricity, according to Iranian Embassy in Australia.
