Lian Ensemble is a Persian classical music ensemble based in Los Angeles, California, USA.[1]

History

The Lian Ensemble was established in 1996 by Pirayeh Pourafar, Houman Pourmehdi . The group has performed throughout the U.S. and internationally. [2][3]

Style

The Lian Ensemble is a group of performers and composers.

Their compositions fuse the Mystical Persian musical heritage with the contemporary sensibilities of postmodern Jazz.

Combining a musical vision with dedication to experimentation, they create a synthesis of mystical world music composed of traditional and folk melodies and instruments.

The Lian is composed of musicians whose diverse musical styles lend to this blend of Mystical world music.

Lian's music flows between a diverse range of styles and traditions, forging a sound that is all their own.

After much collaboration, the musicians have acquired the requisite knowledge of Persian music, and each adds their own distinctive rhythmic sounds to compositions, creating an mix of melodies.

In performance, Lian's ever-evolving repertoire of creative original music is expanded, rearranged, and examined with exploratory eyes at each and every concert.
