What to expect

The term performance varies depending on the location, occasion, and event. As a performing artist, my priority is to help my audience participate in the joy that I experience while I perform. To me, flexibility and spontaneity are the fuel of a successful performance. And this makes each collaboration unique, be it with fellow artists or programmers and planners. My goal is to generously offer my music and create beautiful moments.

Set list

I will bring out the pieces that work best for the event and go through them with the hosts/planners. The setlists I use range from classical pieces to pop arrangements.

Influences and inspiration

My musical journey has been a long and diverse one. Starting from traditional Persian music to classical music and historical performance and later on my enthusiasm for contemporary music and electronic music have all had a huge influence on my musical identity. The music I make and the way I play is undoubtedly inspired by all of my past experiences.
