Summarizing the Whole: Post 8

     After researching the topic and examining the aspects of each culture, it is apparent there is a link between Baroque and Modern Iranian Music, from the view of anthem form and texture. Both pieces follow under the structure and maintain a religious theme, despite the length and topic of religion. The anthem form, however, is more apparent in Zadok the Priest, than Saz va Avaz, unless one would speak Iranian. The homophonic texture was viewed plainly in both pieces, though Zadok is more organized into the texture, though one could tell the texture from Saz va Avaz.
