In Iran, women are forbidden from singing solo in public. Still, singers Mahsa and Marjan Vahdat presented a concert recently at the Italian Embassy in Tehran. The concert is out out on CD. Masha Vahdat joins us along with Niloofar Mina, an Iranian-born ethnomusicologist who teaches at New Jersey City University.
