Template:Life and works
Bahman Kazemi was born in Kermanshah in 1967. He graduated in bachelor and master's degree in political science in Tehran- Iran. Then in 2010, he held a Ph.D. in politics and government by the University of UMP in Malaysia. Based on his musical field studies researches in many countries, now he is well known as an international ethnomusicologist. [1] During his childhood, he was oriented toward the music of Qajar. In order to clear the sounds and noises of the old records, at the age of 12 he began his studies in electronics and physics. Gradually, He learnt the principles of Iranian Traditional Music in his childhood. Many grate masters helped him to learn the intricacies of Iranian Traditional music and classical literatures. Two famous of these masters were "Hatam Askari Farahani" and "Sodayf Rambod". Also, two grate poets and literary men, Behzad and Vafa Kermanshahi, taught him Iranian classic literature. In 1991, he was well-known in Iranian Traditional Music and performed many concerts and composed some traditional songs called "Tasnif". Two years later by traveling to Tbilisi, India, Paris and London, he collected parts of the rare music of the previous century, and returned them back to Iran. [2] Some of his music professors include Hassan Shirani, Rahmatullah Merati, Nematollah Motamedi, Heshmatullah Masnan, Mahmoud Tajbakhsh, Ali Alborzi and Ibrahim Sepehri. In the meantime, "Mir Ali Mokarami" one of the great masters of old music, litrature and philosophy and a friend of Iqbal Azar gave him a different narration of Radif completely different from the popular narratives of Radif's Iranian music. He has been the first independent researcher in the history of Iran for spending about 5 million dollars in music research on Iranian folk music personally. The result of his research led to more than 1,000 hours of video recording and 4,000 photos of social life of Iranian tribes related to musical activities. They are currently the most valuable sources of Iranian ethnographic studies. In addition to research on Iran's political geography, he studied Iranian music in a wider area called cultural geography of Iran, and started to doing some field studies in the countries of Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, Armenia, Georgia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, China, India and Malaysia. Some international experts have cited Bahman Kazemi's research and books in the field of music research as a new transition and scientific progress in cultural research. [2]
Template:The Paradigm of Ethnic Divisions of Iran
In 2000, according to the theory of ethno-cultural studies, Bahman Kazemi introduced the paradigm of ethnic divisions of Iran, which for the first time Iran was indicated as a country of 8 Ethnic Groups (Fars, Turkmen, Baloch, Talesh, Lor, Azeri, Arabs and Kurds.) In this subject, he published articles in domestic and foreign publications, which was considered by many Western anthropologists and ethnologists.
