Namaad is a contemporary Persian classical music Ensemble. It was formed by five outstanding musicians to play original compositions on both modern and classical poetry of Iran. Passionate and hunting melodies that are performed by Kourosh Taghavi on the Setar and Saeed Kamjoo on the Kamanche and Qeychak find their oneness when percussions by Mehrdad Arabi and Afshin Mehrassa on colorfully create the needed space in which the beautiful voice of Khosro Ansari tells the stories of our time.
Namaad Ensemble has toured extensively throughout California performing its original compositions and is in the studio recording their last work based on the poetry of Forough Farrakhan and Siavash Kasraei (both contemporary poets of Iran)
