Mohammad is the founder and director of the World Music Museum Society in Halifax.
From the words of Mohammad:
“It's an Iranian classical and traditional music concert. We planned it two months ago, but because of the current situation of Iran, we decided to change our plans, so now it's two parts. The first part is classical and traditional Iranian music and the second part, we chose some songs to support the protesters in Iran. Some of the songs are old and were used in different revolutions in Iran in the past, and one of them is new; right now, people sing it on the streets.
We try a lot, specifically my students, they try hard, for you to share our culture. We want to share our musical culture with you. So if you like the taste of Iranian music, please come and join us."
The concert will run for around one hour with no intermissions, and there will be an opportunity to meet, talk, and connect after the show with Mohammad and his group!
