Mehrnoosh Zolfaghari is a professional musician, composer, and a multi-instrumentalist based in Finland. Her principal instrument is the Santoor, a traditional Persian instrument capable of playing numerous folk modes and ‘Dastgâhs.’ In Zolfaghari’s solo concert at the Kirpilä Art Collection, you will have the opportunity to hear the enchanting sounds of the santoor both as compositions and improvisations.
Zolfaghari has been playing the santoor for over 20 years and has been teaching it for more than 10 years. Her goal is to introduce Iranian music to the world, and she enjoys blending traditional elements with contemporary influences. Her interest in contemporary music has led to several projects and compositions where she combines the sound of the santoor with electronic sounds.
