Sa'id Hormozi

Ostad Sa'id Hormozi (; 1898–1976) was an Iranian musician who is remembered for his efforts to "promote authentic Iranian music" and pass it to modern musicians. He was born in one of the old neighborhoods of Tehran called Sangalaj. He was a prominent radif master and virtuoso tar and setar player.

He was a student of Darvish Khan (student of Mirza Hossein-Qoli, "one of the pioneers of Iranian music"), who awarded Hormozi with the medal of the "Golden Hatchet". That prize was given only to Khan's best students.

His music allows hints to modern students of other Iranian musical masters. In terms of performance techniques one can find traces of his ostad Darvish Khan in Hormozi's peculiar style. His phrasing is mostly influenced by that of Aqa Hossein-Qoli. Saʻid Hormozi, Setâr 2. Mahoor music (2003). Radif of Persian Music on Setâr, Interpreted and performed by Saʻid Hormozi.
