Over the past weekend, I had the honor of talking with four-time Grammy nominated Kayhan Kalhor about his music, his life, and the current state of traditional Persian music, just before his trip to San Francisco to perform at the Herbst Theater on February 2, 2012. I would like to share what I learned with you. I took the photographs used for this photo essay during a performance he gave in Palo Alto along with Pezhham Akhavass last summer. Don’t miss Thursday night’s performance! (Photos 2-5 and 29-30 are by Ali Boustan.) 12 next › last »
