Amirhossein Heydari is an Iranian musician, composer, and music researcher with over 14 years of professional experience performing on the Kamancheh and Alto Gheychak. Throughout his career, he has collaborated with numerous ensembles and musical groups across Iran, performing at a wide range of festivals and cultural events.
In recent years, his artistic activities have expanded internationally. Based in the United Kingdom, he has worked with a diverse range of musicians and ensembles, including Ajam Band, One World Orchestra, and Persian String Collective. One of his most notable collaborations was his contribution to the track “Azizam” alongside internationally acclaimed British singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran, a project that helped showcase the richness of Persian musical traditions to a global audience.
Alongside his work as a performer, Heydari is actively engaged in composition, developing original works that blend traditional Persian musical elements with contemporary and cross-cultural influences. His creative approach is rooted in innovation while maintaining a strong connection to the heritage of Persian music.
He is currently focused on his principal project, 95Pulse Band, founded in late 2024 in collaboration with pianist and composer Danial Amileh. The band’s work has already received international recognition; its piece “Madhoosh” was awarded the Bronze Medal at the Global Music Awards and was also recognized as a winner at the UK International Music Competition. These achievements reflect the ensemble’s distinctive artistic vision and growing presence on the international music scene.
