Shahin Farhat's style of music, based on what he has learned, is mixed with harmony, counterpoint, orchestration and other techniques of Western music, and is inspired by the music of the Romantic period. In most of his works, a kind of obscure romanticism is felt along with nostalgia. Influential post-romantic composers such as Gustav Mahler and Anton Bruckner have been influenced. The sound of Farhat's works, although often far from the atmosphere of Iranian music, has not been without Iranian songs.[46]
As a child, Farhat became acquainted with Persian music through his father's teachings, and later used Iranian themes and melodies in his compositions.[47] Iranian has been used and in the third movement of this work, one of the colors of Darvish Khan can be heard.[48] He has also used the poems of classical Iranian poets, such as: Khayyam, Hafez, Saadi and Ferdowsi in some of his works. Shahin Farhat says about Iranian music:[49]
"... We have a very old music and if you pay attention, the names of our music corners even exist in the poems of Roudaki, Ferdowsi, Hafez and Saadi. The atmosphere of this music has survived in us until now and has been in the hearts of the people of this land and they have lived with this music ما Our music is honest music and does not lie…"
Farhat says about the use of Iranian music in Western forms:[46]
"When it comes to performing works with an orchestra in an international style, I do not have the desire to perform works that are 100% derived from instrumental music such as Bayat Isfahan and Chahargah with the orchestra. کلی My general desire is for works with The form and context is international and their characteristics are such that when performing in various western orchestras, they are not considered strangers at all. "While I, as an unconscious Iranian, cannot be completely excluded from the Iranian music scene, it is certain that this is not what I do, as the songs of Ruhollah Khaleghi and Hossein Dehlavi sound like."

Kambiz Roshanrarvan considers Shahin Farhat to be a multifaceted artist, he says in this regard: "He is a good and capable pianist and very capable in his way of playing." The Enlightenment considers familiarity with new techniques in playing the piano as one of the characteristics of Farhat playing. According to the enlightened Kambiz, Farhat is a good composer and adheres to the advanced systems of world music, and all the charms of the form and techniques of contemporary music are evident in his works. The Enlightenment also describes Farhat's work as a "blend of Iranian and Western music culture" and considers him an experienced and unbiased teacher.[50] Darvish Reza Monazami considers the pieces made by Farhat as works that, although rooted in Western classical music, can also be found in patterns of Iranian traditional music, and this feature can be a good model for composers and introduce more Iranian music. Manzemi believes that there are few people like Shahin Farhat in the field of classical music in Iran who, in addition to Western music, also know Iranian music and follow its example in their works.[50]
Sasan Fatemi considers the most important feature of Shahin Farhat's works to be bilingual in contemporary Iranian culture and music. He considers the language of Farhat to be close to that of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. According to the Fatimid Sasan, a symphony in Iran is not usually made on the basis of the real form, but Farhat is very interested in the form of a symphony whose primary core is the sonata, and the structure of its symphonies is strong and has form and content.[50]
Mohammad Sarir believes that "there are few artists who have enough mentality and knowledge in listening music." He attributes this mentality to "Farhat's creativity", which is manifested in all his fields in his musical aspirations and ideas. According to Sarir, Shahin Farhat's interest and perseverance are rare and can be a role model for young people.[51]
Critique of works
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e6/%D8%B4%D8%A7%D9%87%DB%8C%D9%86_%D9%81%D8%B1%D9%87%D8%AA_%DB%B7.jpg/172px-%D8%B4%D8%A7%D9%87%DB%8C%D9%86_%D9%81%D8%B1%D9%87%D8%AA_%DB%B7.jpg)
Some of Shahin Farhat's works, especially his symphonies, have often been sponsored by the government.[52] For this reason, custom work and its production by government agencies on various occasions has always been discussed and reacted to by critics. Shahin Farhat is one of the most criticized composers in this field.[35][53]
Farhat is the most prolific Iranian symphonist,[13] but according to some experts; Although the works of this artist have been written in a completely correct and principled way in terms of music form and symphonic title, the content of these works has led to the dissatisfaction of the audience. In a way, the title "custom works" for the general audience of music is reminiscent of an original work commissioned by the government to promote the artist for specific purposes. Shahin Farhat, in the face of these criticisms, considers his inclination towards symphony as "occult relief". He does not know the difference between custom pieces and works that come from the artist's taste. According to Farhat, ordering is important for the artist in two ways: "It encourages him to write the work and tries to produce a good work. For this reason, ordering a work of art should not be confused with cross-sectional and immediate work. "[54] It is not, but it is considered one of the masterpieces of the art world. "[55]
Musical works
Shahin Farhat's works can be divided into three periods. The first period is the pieces written at the beginning of the academic education, these works are close to modern music and at the same time, thematic melodies are evident in them.[56] Khayyam's symphony, Hafez cantata, trio for string instruments and sonata for piano The pieces are from the first period. The second period includes works that were formed after Farhat's education. The use of modern and in some cases Athena harmony is seen in these works. These works were inspired by the terrifying atmosphere of the Iran-Iraq war. Quartet No. 1 and 2, Symphony No. 2, 3 and 4 are among the works of the second period. The third period is the chapter in which, according to Hormoz Farhat, the composer has found his language and style. Works written from Damavand Symphony onwards can be called the result of this period.[1] Farhat has so far composed about one hundred musical works in various forms, including symphonies, quartets and concertos, and several other pieces. In January 2017, he donated his music to the Museum of Iranian Music.[57] About twenty symphonies by Shahin Farhat have been recorded and published so far, which is the largest number of works by Iranian composers, for this reason he is entitled " The father of the Iranian symphony.
