Drawing on the rich traditions of Iranian classical repertoire, the ensemble explores expressive melodies and rhythmic forms that reflect both the depth and beauty of Persian musical heritage. This performance is dedicated to those who lost their lives in Iran in the pursuit of freedom, and to the families they left behind.
