about

Born and raised in Tehran, Iran, Aida Shirazi is a composer of acoustic and electroacoustic music. Shirazi’s music is described as”unfolding with deliberation” by The New York Times, “well-made” and “affecting” by The New Yorker, and “unusually creative” by San Francisco Classical Voice.
In her works for solo instruments, voice, ensemble, orchestra, and electronics she mainly focuses on timbre for organizing structures that are often inspired by Pe
rsian or English languages and literature, as well as Iranian classical music.

"Orbis" is a fixed media work based on a quatrain by Omar Khayyam.
According to Khayyam, good and evil are inherent to human nature. So, we are the agents of perfection and failure in this world. In my work, I tried to create an abstract space that embraces the text. The words don't dominate that space, though; they are fragmented and fused with the synthesized and recorded sounds.
