Translation of 'FORM AND DESIGN' into Persian

Presenting my translation of 'Form and Design' into Persian, commissioned by the prestigious Mahoor Institute and originally published by Cambridge University Press. This work introduces the fundamentals of musical forms and serves as an introductory exploration into musical structures. With meticulous attention to detail and numerous assignments, I've ensured clarity and readability for Persian audiences, offering valuable insight for students in music conservatories and colleges.
