Yasamin Shahhosseini

##### New poetics for the oud. Yasamin Shahhosseini is an Iranian artist who aspires to redefine the cultural and stylistic possibilities of the oud for a new generation. Steeped in the traditions of Persian classical music, she brings an intuitive, exploratory spirit to a form often bound by convention. Yasamin's playing is shaped by years of rigorous study in the radif and modal systems of Iran, yet her music never feels constrained by form. Instead, Yasamin carves out a deeply personal space, one that holds introspection and stillness alongside rich melodic invention. Her performances move with the logic of improvisation, drawing on the spiritual and emotional depth of Persian classical music while offering a distinctively contemporary voice.
