An immersive musical performance inspired by the ancient ceremonies, melodies, and living traditions of Lorestan.

ZÂ is an immersive musical performance exploring the sacred and ceremonial traditions of Lorestan—one of the most culturally rich yet underrepresented regions of Iran.

Rooted in the intersection of birth, grief and transcendence, the program traces a powerful emotional and spiritual arc through Lorestani mourning rituals and whirling ceremonial practices. Through deeply expressive musical language the performance guides audiences from lamentation toward ecstasy and transformation.

Blending the mournful voice of the kamancheh, the hypnotic pulse of ceremonial percussion, and the melodic and harmonic depth of tar, the work offers an intimate yet powerful experience that reflects both ancient spiritual traditions and living cultural memory.
