DESCRIPTION:Today we welcome Neysun Rouhani to give this fascinating lecture- a brief history of Piano in Iran and then the effects of the 1978 Islamic Revolution on the music. Neysun will  introduce composers who have written music for piano and performances of their music will be given by young pianists including Deedeh Rouhani\, Luca Boston and Rose McLachlan. \nNeysun started learning piano at an early age under the tutelage of his father\, esteemed British-Iranian composer\, Mehran Rouhani. Showing a lot of potential\, he went on to study with professors Gagik Babayan and Raphael Minaskanian in Iran and Gerhard Geretschläger in Vienna. \nHis greatest influence came from his teacher and mentor Benjamin Kaplan in London. In addition to his training as a pianist\, he had the privilege to participate in masterclasses with Menahem Pressler\, Charles Rosen and Martino Tirimo.   \nA notable solo recording includes the album ‘3 Piano Pieces’ featuring piano music composed by Mehran Rouhani (released on Hermes Records and available on Spotify). \n Neysun Produced and organised ‘Epic Persia’ at Cadogan Hall in London\, which showcased the works of many composers from Persia and was a co-director of the ‘Epic Persia Composition Competiton’.
