Kamanche: Amir-Ahmad Rastbod

Since 1987, he began learning music under great masters such as Ali Salimi. In 1989 during his teenage years, he was invited to play in Tabriz Radio Orchestra as a Kamanche soloist. In 1992, he won the best soloist award throughout the media of the whole country for playing a piece in Shushtari in a composition by master Salimi. Afterwards he immigrated to Tehran and began cooperating with both the media and the Ministry of Culture. One of his most valuable musical experiences, as he puts himself, is collaboration with the great pianist Ms Novin Afruz in 1995. Their ongoing cooperation has led to his intimate familiarity with western classical music besides performing a number of concerts in various European countries.
