For fifteen years, Elahe was one of the main singers of the “Golha” program, contributing to its enduring legacy. Her association with the program brought her nationwide fame, and she became a household name in Iran. Many of her performances on “Golha” featured compositions by Homayoun Khorram, whose works seamlessly blended traditional Persian music with modern orchestration. One of Elahe’s most memorable performances was her rendition of “Az Khone Jawanan Vatan Laleh Damideh,” a patriotic song composed by Aref Qazvini. The arrangement by Ruhollah Khaleghi, performed with a large orchestra, highlighted Elahe’s ability to command a wide vocal range and emotional depth.
While Elahe primarily focused on traditional music, she occasionally ventured into the realm of pop music. However, her identity as an artist remained firmly rooted in the classical traditions of Persian music. Songs such as “Rofteh,” composed by Homayoun Khorram, exemplify her enduring appeal. Her collaborations extended to other prominent composers, including Parviz Yahaghi, Mohammad Abdolsamadi, and Javad Lashkari. Additionally, Elahe worked with numerous poets and lyricists, further enriching her artistic output.
