If you have not heard Reza Vali this is your chance to catch him in L.A. Vali is an Iranian composer who combines Persian and western classical traditions in his music. This is the kind of good stuff that makes you sit up and take notice. It opens the eye of your ear, so to speak. I wouldn’t miss it if I were you and in the area. It puts traditional Iranian music on a whole new map. For more on Reza Vali check this out:
