Hossein Soleimani

I became interested in playing music in my teens. I started out with singing and then then expanding my portfolio of skills to include Kamancheh, a traditional Iranian musical instrument. Playing this instrument for me was a way to calm myself down from stressful day to day life and not to think about anything but music for a few hours a day. While studying at the university in the field of engineering, continued learning music from several prestigious musicians, including world renowned and Silk Road Ensemble, maestro Kayhan Kalhor. A few years later, me and some of my friends formed a band. I played Kamancheh, composed and lead the band. I have continued to garner critical acclaim as leader of the band “Sayesar”. Together with my band, I released 3 albums with the following names: 1.familiar glance 2.good days 3.forty nights of solitude Individually, I have participated in several music festivals inside and outside Iran and won a number of awards in composing and playing Kamancheh. I have so many experiences in the field of Persian traditional music and Fusion music.
