Bio
........................AMIR HAGHIGHI & AMY STEPHEN: Wanderer......Amir Haghighi's passionate Persian traditional vocals backed by gorgeous sounds of persian instruments (frame drums, tar, setar, santur), plus the deft harp playing and subtle background vocals of partner Amy Stephen. Intensely beautiful treatment of Persian folk songs & classical poetry........................... Amir Haghighi was born and raised in Tehran, Iran, and grew up singing traditional Persian music. Amir has appeared at the Vancouver International Folk Festival, the Vancouver International Jazz Festival, the Vancouver International Children's Festival, the Chan Centre with the Vancouver Intercultural Orchestra, the Vancouver Sacred Music Festival, Global Discoveries Festival, Inter-spiritual Chantfest, Persian Cultural Conferences and events in Los Angeles, Chicago, and Seattle, Geneva, Paris, Amsterdam, Montreal, Ottawa and Toronto. Featured as a soloist and composer in the award-winning Canadian documentary "Music for a New World", Amir's musical inspiration comes mainly from the spiritual, mystical elements of the great mystical Persian poets: Rumi, Hafiz, Saadi and others. Through his singing, Amir communicates the passion of life in all its joy, and sadness... he crosses every cultural boundary and goes straight to the heart.... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..
