Join the UCLA Herb Alpert School of Music and the Gramian-Emrani Center for Iranian Music as we welcome Sadegh Nojouki, one of the most prominent and influential composers in Iranian popular music.

The conversation will be in Persian, moderated by Dr. Shahab Paranj.

Sadegh Nojouki is a renowned Iranian composer, arranger, and pianist, best known for his significant contributions to Persian pop and classical music. Born in Tehran, he began his musical career in the 1970s and quickly became a key figure in shaping modern Iranian music. Nojouki is particularly known for blending traditional Persian melodies with Western orchestration and harmonies. His elegant arrangements and emotive compositions have earned him a lasting legacy in the Iranian music scene.
