Farhang Foundation proudly presented the much-anticipated return of our NOWRUZ CONCERT at UCLA's prestigious Royce Hall on March 10, 2024. It was an evening filled with extraordinary talent as we were honored to showcase the remarkable skills of Tahmoures and Sohrab Pournazeri, accompanied by an ensemble of exceptional musicians, including the illustrious Sahar Boroujerdi, two-time Grammy-winning soprano Hila Plitmann, and the brilliant Iranshahr Orchestra, skillfully conducted by Dr. Shahab Paranj. We were also honored to feature music by some of the most illustrious composers of today, including Richard Danielpour, David Garner, Ahmad Pejman, and Reza Vali.
This captivating concert was a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Iran and its vibrant musical traditions.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the UCLA Herb Alpert School of Music for their collaboration and for being the nurturing ground for the renowned Iranian Music Degree Program, a legacy established by Farhang Foundation.
We express our deepest appreciation to the sold-out audience whose enthusiastic presence made this event truly unforgettable. Special thanks are also extended to all our generous sponsors, dedicated supporters, and hardworking volunteers whose invaluable contributions helped bring this exceptional evening to life.
