Blend is an instrumental piece from a collaborative album by Koorosh Angali and Akan Kushan. X DOT 25 Music Productions celebrated Rumi's 790th birthday on September 30, 1997, with this spiritual journey into the realm of Persian verse and music.

To mark Rumi's 790th birthday and more exposure for this great Persian poet and philosopher, X DOT 25 Music released a 60 minute album containing poems from Rumi's "Divaan-e Kabeer" book accompanied by music performed by Santur Maestro Alan Kushan (the Dusty Man).

For many years, the followers of Rumi's philosophy have enjoyed Koorosh's interpretations in reading the poetry of this thirteenth century philosopher/poet. The San Francisco Weekly Magazine Wammies Award winner, Koorosh Angali has constantly been a student of his heritage, incorporating the magnificent aspects of his culture in his painting, poetry, and music.

Koorosh Angali:
Visual artist, poet, musician. The winner of numerous awards and scholarships in visual arts, music, and academic endeavors, Koorosh Angali is a prolific multi-talented artist and scholar: painter, poet, musician, stage actor, and a virtuoso exponent of Rumi's poetry, and Persian classical literature.

"As an obsession since childhood, painting has been my number one occupation and everything else orbits around this sphere. Nevertheless, art, in general, has always been my "occupation" par excellence: my poetry supports my painting; I compose music to nurture these two; I do all three to be alive and then I perform, and the stage is the final thrill for me—my ultimate reward. For me, these worlds are inseparable." —Koorosh Angali

Alan Kushan:
Arguably one of the most accomplished Santur players in the world. He stands out not only because of his brilliant realizations of traditional Persian compositions, but also for his innovative avant-garde soundscapes. He is not only a builder of Persian instruments but also a virtuoso in performing Persian traditional music. His style, however, is not limited to the traditional approaches but it extends itself beyond any such boundaries. He applies his own touch to the music that he performs, a touch which he has developed after experiencing the new trend of music, not only in his native land of Iran, but in the world, at these final days of this century.

The sound you hear in this album is from a new and unique instrument designed and hand crafted by Alan Kushan, using strings from Piano, Harp and Harpsichord. This instrument creates a bass sound not found in the family of Santur, yet Alan has created this instrument using the Santur trapezoidal box concept, and plays it using Santur hammers.
