A celebration of Nowrouz and the arrival of Spring

Join us for an intimate performance of classical and folk music from different regions of Iran celebrating Nowruz and the arrival of spring.

Nowruz (نوروز meaning 'New Day') is the traditional and ancient Iranian festival and the first day of Iranian "New Year". Nowruz also marks the first day of Spring and rebirth of nature. Being with family, gift-giving, setting a symbolic haft-sin table, spring cleaning, visiting elders and relatives, and picnics in nature are among the traditions observed by many Iranians on this day.

The Sarv Ensemble (سرو meaning 'Cypress') is devoted to playing traditional Persian music. Its members are experienced professional performers and teachers of traditional Iranian music and love to work together, practice, and share this music.

The Sarv Ensemble is:
Shahin Fayyaz (Tar, Robab)
Kousha Nakhaie (Kamanche)
Parisa Ferdousian (Tar)
Araz Pashayee (Tombak, Udo)
Shabnam Sahraie (Daf)
