WITHOUT YOU was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Traditional World Music Album.

This outstanding album is alive with electric energy. Featuring classical Persian music played with lute, spike fiddle, and drum, this phenomenal set of musicians (all descended from a long line of music masters) is exceptional in terms of the Iranian classical scene. The album (recorded live) consists of haunting solo instrumentation colored with the piercing cries Mohaammad Reza Shajarian's operatic voice. Equally important is the use of the spaces in between the notes, which lend a conversational tone to the interplay between the various musical elements. Shajarian's supple vocals sound at times like they cannot be of this world. For example, In "Saz Va Avaz," his voice morphs into something that sounds mechanical, as if it was run through a synthesizer. The improvisational aspects of this performance and the virtuostic command of the instruments make it fresh and mind-expanding from start to finish.
