Reviews
“Farzad has achieved his goal to speak the language of many with one violin” Heidi Drockelman
• "His music is immersed in cultural diversity...demonstrating the 'oneness of humanity,' [and] will help illuminate a path to peace." Associated Press

• “ Farzad is a classically-trained artist whose Persian violin and jazzy folkloric compositions have carved a new category of art into the world of music.” Spencer Theater
