Sarv Ensemble is a traditional Persian music ensemble formed in 2010. Drawing inspiration from diverse classical and folk traditions across Iran, our aim is to perform and share this music through concerts, as well as workshops, outreach and community events. Exploring new creative strategies, Sarv Ensemble performs original work through directed improvisation, collective composition, and composition based on academic research. Sarv Ensemble presents both in traditional contexts as well as in collaboration with artists from different traditions and disciplines. In its first year of activity, it has performed with vocalist Roohangiz from Guilan province of Iran, and storyteller Ariel Balevi from Toronto, and is planning for a North American tour with vocalist Naser Masoudi in 2011. Sarv Ensemble will perform traditional Persian music in Tirgan.
