Mohammad H. Javaheri (1989-), an Iranian composer and performer from Tehran, has gained recognition for his interest in dense, powerful masses of sound and crafting complex textures. He has been named as a promising future composer and internationally in-demand by Germany's NMZ newspaper and Thuringian state newspaper, respectively. Moreover, he received attention in various news articles, including the LA Times. His music has been characterized as 'tense’, 'sensational’, and 'detailed'; and he inherently crafts his ‘own sound’ (Toshio Hosokawa, SYNTHETIS 2019). His versatile compositions span various forms, including electronic and acoustic elements, and have received international awards. His creative focus has consistently revolved around the concepts of "Cycle, Repetition, Trans-formative Blocks," and the interplay of speed with the structure of his compositions, along with the human psyche's evolution, delving into the profound impact of incidents and traumas on human psychology. His music vividly captures the cyclical nature of these changes and their lasting effects on emotions, actions, and life decisions. His pieces have been performed by well-known artists, ensembles, and orchestras worldwide, featured on platforms like SWR2 Radio, and published by Babelscores, Score Follower, and UCLA Music Library.
In 2024, he was awarded an EDGE Fellowship by Stanford University, positioning him to become a member of the cross-disciplinary community of scholars at Stanford.

Parsa Zandi – Persian Composer (b. 2004, Tehran, Iran)



Parsa is deeply drawn to the expressive potential of microtonality, blending delicate melodies with rich textures. Intuition and emotion play a central role in his music, guiding a natural balance between structure and expressivity. He strives to create an immersive musical experience where melody and atmosphere come together with sincerity and depth.

He studied composition with Mohammad H. Javaheri and Karen Keyhani in Iran. Parsa later studied composition with Beat Furrer and is now continuing his studies under the supervision of Annesley Black. He was also an Erasmus student at the University of the Arts Berlin (UDK).

Parsa Zandi has had lessons with notable composers such as Chaya Czernowin, Franck Bedrossian, Iris ter Schiphorst, Johannes Maria Staud, Klaus Lang, Mark Andre, Mathias Hinke, Pierluigi Billone, Samir Odeh Tamimi, Clemens Gadenstätter, and Artur Kroschel.

Parsa Zandi's compositions have been performed in several countries, including Austria, Canada, Germany, Iran, Ireland, the Netherlands, Spain, Turkey, the USA, Poland, and others. His works have been featured in festivals and programs such as Open Call Nodus 2022, Residencia Artística en Les Coves de Vinromà 2022, FestMus 2023 Castello, ICCS Young Talents 2023, Roadrunner Academy 2024, ClarinetFest 2024 in Dublin, Brass Academy Musikfabrik 2025, In Situ Graz, and the 54th International Contemporary Music Festival Poznań Musical Spring 2025.

His compositions have been performed by renowned ensembles including Ensemble Modern, Ensemble Musikfabrik, Ensemble Zeitfluss, Ensemble für Neue Musik Graz, Sepia Ensemble, CSMC Brass Band & Contemporary Ensemble, and the Roadrunner Trio. Additionally, musicians like Thomas Piercy, Elena Arbonies Jauregui, Kathryn Vetter, Mario Porcar Rueda, and others have collaborated with him.
