About Sibarg:
As San Diego Troubadour noted, Sibarg Ensemble embodies “an organic authenticity that reflects strong ties to both traditional Persian music and improvisational aspects of jazz.” Founded in 2008 by Hesam Abedini at Tehran Music Conservatory, Sibarg was the conservatory’s first intercultural ensemble and the first to unite students from both women’s and men’s music schools. Since moving to the U.S. in 2010, the group has graced stages such as UCLA’s Royce Hall, USC’s Bovard Auditorium, and the Carlsbad Music Festival. Their acclaimed debut album, Cipher (2018), showcases their dynamic fusion of Iranian musical heritage and jazz improvisation.
🎶 Sibarg Ensemble features:
Hesam Abedini – vocals
Sara Saberi – oud & vocals
