The result of this cooperation is the song “Ey Iran”, which was first performed on 27 October 1323 at the first concert of the National Music Association Orchestra in the cinema hall of Tehran, on Istanbul street for two consecutive nights. This anthem was repeated three times in the same assembly and each time it created enthusiasm and excitement in the crowd.  The reception and effect of this anthem made the Minister of Culture at that time send a group of musicians to the sound broadcasting center to record a page of it. and broadcast every day on Radio Capital.  Another performance is related to the years 1337 to 1342 in the big orchestra “Golha” where Gholam Hossein Banan, the popular singer, sang this hymn. It was made and its main melody is borrowed from some of Bakhtiari’s musical songs which have an epic atmosphere. Another characteristic of it is that few foreign words are used in it and most of its words are Persian.
