Kayhan Kalhor and Kiya Tabassian Live In Concert

GRAMMY Award winner and internationally acclaimed kamancheh (spiked fiddle) virtuoso Kayhan Kalhor performs with virtuoso setar player Kiya Tabassian in Tirgan Festival 2019.

For this concert, Kayhan Kalhor will perform on the setar, his second instrument to the bowed kamancheh. The setar, which he has rarely played on concert stages, is a four-stringed lute with 25 movable frets, often associated with Sufism. He will be joined by Kiya Tabassian, his student of many years, for an evening of exquisite improvisations.
