ABOUT ESFANDIAR SHAHMIR ENSEMBLE
Let yourself be transported by the Esfandiar Shahmir Ensemble, a group that weaves music, poetry, and passion into every performance.
Combining traditional Persian melodies with improvisation and verses from great Persian poets, their music creates a rich, uplifting, and unforgettable experience.
Led by Esfandiar on vocals, daf (hand drum), and ney (end-blown flute), the ensemble features an extraordinary lineup of musicians: Steve Richter on drums, Kira Gunn on harp, Geoff Bourgault on clarinet, and Tom Berkmann on bass.
Together, they blend Western instruments with authentic Iranian music, crafting a unique and intoxicating soundscape that transcends borders and resonates deeply with audiences everywhere.
