The Living Earth Show: Hyphen

Hyphen showcases new works written for The Living Earth Show by composers representing different generations of the Iranian electroacoustic music. The concert serves as a celebration of the 80th birthday of Alireza Mashayekhi, the legendary Iranian composer often credited as being one of the first composers of contemporary classical music in Iran. His influence resonates throughout the generations of Iranian composers represented on this show (Aida Shirazi, Farnood HaghaniPour, and Nima Rowshan) alongside the world premiere of Mashayekhi’s new work Labyrinth II written for The Living Earth Show.
