It was an honor to participate in Throughline: A Celebration of Persian Music and Poetry, an event about the beauty of Persian culture and the ideas that connect all of us. We played a combination of traditional music from Iran and improvised music to accompany both poems by famous Persian poets and original works.

I was amazed at how all the parts and people, the music and the words seemed to fit so perfectly together.
