Reflection
(by the composer himself)

Reflection is a freely  concept from fugue. In composing this piece I benefited from Iranian thematic elements.some part of this concept is conscious. And what is hidden in the nature of this piece is because of it's composer's nationality and his devotion to his country.

similarity of recursion and simultaneity between fugue and Iranian architecture makes the internal essence of this piece. in  fact Reflection is a composing of thematic and technical elements of east and west's music.
