info 

Behzad Abdi is an adroit composer and orchestrator, with so many great works of film music in his resume. Yet, his other art is to turn the constraints to possibilities. The glorious companionship he managed -comprising twelve female players and a male singer- gained a symbolic function as a result of socio-historical reasons; Specially that ?Being a Musician? (Khonyagari in Persian) originally referred to playing and singing together with story-telling. Women?s voice is not just restricted to singing; Now, though their larynxes have been sentenced to silence for years in command of religion, seeing their brilliant achievements in instrumental performance is very pleasing and promising. Women, today, are expected to take stronger steps, do not be afraid of judgments, adorn their art with their feminine features so that their artworks represent them in the boldest manner, and eventually, do not obey what is asked from them to be or to become.
