A Grammy-winning internationally renowned soloist, he is considered an ambassador of Persian art music in the world.<\/p>\n<p>He is also a member of the renowned Silk Road Ensemble founded by Yo-Yo Ma, and continues to tour with the celebrated cellist as well as regularly composing for him.<\/p>\n<p>He recently received the prestigious WOMEX Artist Award.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Behnam Samani plays the <em>tombak<\/em> goblet drum. In his own particular style, he combines an amazing variety of rhythms that have their roots in classical Persian music but are open to influences from other cultures, leading to a wide range of sounds, colours and expressions. A founder member of the percussion group Zarbang, Samani has played with leading Iranian musicians and has toured extensively internationally, especially with the Dastan ensemble.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The concert will be preceded by a study session on the music and aesthetics of the classical Persian tradition, organised by Giovanni De Zorzi.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cini.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/210616_335x478_Iran_web.pdf\">DOWNLOAD THE POSTER<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<pre id=\"tw-target-text\" class=\"tw-data-text tw-text-large XcVN5d tw-ta\" dir=\"ltr\" data-placeholder=\"Traduzione\"><span class=\"Y2IQFc\" lang=\"en\">THE PLACES TO ATTEND THE CONCERT IN PRESENCE ARE SOLD OUT.\nWe remind you that both the meeting on Tuesday 13 July, 5 pm, and the concert on Wednesday 14 July, 6 pm, will be streamed on the Youtube channel of the Fondazione Giorgio Cini.<\/span><\/pre>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":78876,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"cini_tax_event_categories":[1483,1465],"cini_tax_institutes":[28],"cini_tax_event_locations":[1464],"class_list":["post-79735","cini_events","type-cini_events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","cini_tax_event_categories-concerts-and-shows","cini_tax_event_categories-meetings","cini_tax_institutes-etnomusicologia","cini_tax_event_locations-island-of-san-giorgio-maggiore"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Concert of Persian Music: Kayhan Kalhor and\u00a0Behnam Samani - Fondazione Giorgio Cini<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cini.it\/en\/eventi\/concert-of-persian-music-kayhan-kalhor-and-behnam-samani\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Concert of Persian Music: Kayhan Kalhor and\u00a0Behnam Samani - Fondazione Giorgio Cini\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The Intercultural Institute of Comparative Music Studies resumes its music and dance events with a concert dedicated to classical Persian music, organised in collaboration with the Department of Philosophy and Cultural Heritage at Ca\u2019 Foscari University, Venice.
