about

RAST - Rome Acoustic String Quartet is Mike Cooper Resophonic Guitar, Roberto Bellatalla Double Bass and Luca Tilli Cello. A classic string trio chamber music line up dedicated to improvising; exploring our instruments textural as well as percussive, melodic and harmonic possibilities in the 21st Century.

‘Rast’ is the name of a maqam (musical mode or scale) in Arabic music.
Rast is a Persian word (راست) meaning “right” or “direct”. Rast is regarded as the basic maqam in Iranian as well as in Arabic music, in the same way as the major scale in Western music, though it is rather different from the major scale in detail (the major scale is in fact more like maqam Ajam). Rast features a half-flat third and a half-flat seventh scale degrees.
