Persian Chamber Orchestra

Light of Music Persian Orchestra is a chamber orchestra like no other! What distinguishes us is the use of Western baroque period instruments alongside Persian instruments. The orchestra has an exceptionally wide reaching programme, ranging from early baroque to contemporary compositions specifically written for Baroque period instruments, Persian orchestral songs and operatic performances.

We aim to bring Eastern and Western classical music together - two very different worlds which are impossible to come together except in the medium of art and music. Our audience are often surprised to hear how close the Eastern and Western period instruments sound together.
