Led by the amazing Saeid Shanbezadeh, Ensemble Shanbehzadeh performs the trance-inducing rhythms, songs and dances of Bushehr, offering a rare glimpse of a fascinating, little-known musical tradition from the Persian Gulf. A master of the neyanban (double-reed bagpipe), Saeid Shanbehzadeh is acknowledged as one of the Bushehr’s finest musicians and musical scholars. Banning Eyre, host of National Public Radio’s AfropopWorldwide, once described a rare U.S. performance by Ensemble Shanbehzadeh as “a mesmerizing set of what may be called the hidden Afro-Persian tradition … transfixing.”
