The Golha Project aims to digitally archive the Golhā radio programs (comprised of literary commentary with the declamation of poetry, sung with musical accompaniment and interspersed with solo musical pieces) broadcast on Iranian National Radio for 23 years from 1956 through 1979. The project was completed under the supervision of Jane Lewisohn at the London University School of Oriental and African Studies with a grant from the Iran Heritage Foundation. The Golha Project was named as the "Best Persian Music Website of the Year" in 2012 by the House of Iranian Music (Khana-yi Musiqi-i Iran) in Tehran.
