The folkloric music of this region holds some special kind of melancholy such as the heart-rending voices of this region do. The specific instruments from Mazandaran are: Lalewa (flute), Kamancheh (lap -fiddle) and Dotar (with only 2 Strings). The ancient Songs of Mazandaran such as: Katuli, Amiri, Hala- i present the character of this music with its heights and depths in the pitch level

In 1999 Sima Bina was invited to perform in a series of concerts and festivals in Europe and America. She decided to invite a number of talented Iranian women musicians to accompany her in presenting an assortment of her Khorasan folk songs and music. Having these young women musicians performing on an international music arena with her, and continually receiving positive feedback, was of national pride to all of them. Their first concert was staged in the renowned WDR World Music Festival in Bonn, Germany.
