(Film) Composition is one of the most diverse professions in the world of music. That's why my lessons are highly individual. I always start with finding out, what your goal is, in order to plan your individual lessons.

About Me

I always loved music and I always loved film. It took me quite some time to figure out, that I can combine those two worlds. During my B.A. studies at ArtEZ University of Arts (NL) I have gained a lot of musical experience in many different directions. Due to the very progressive and open way of Dutch teaching, I was able to explore classical music, jazz, film music, electronic music and more. I constantly find myself using parts of these experiences in my daily work. Most importantly, this time helped me to shape my professional craft. It always makes me chasing the new, the unknown. I used these skills in the first feature film project Holding Positions. A jazzy 70min Indi film by Laura Mahlberg (Third Picture).

After my studies in the Netherlands, I went back to Germany to study film scoring at the highly acclaimed Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg. I was now able to put my skills to the test in a professional film environment. At this school I learnt everything I had to know for the film industry. But most importantly, I connected with passionate film students and became friends with many of them. I worked closely together with directors, producers, editors, sound designers, composers and even script writers. I managed to get a glimpse in every role of the film production process. I learnt to be quick, to adapt and to work together with the director.

During my studies I already was able to get jobs as a professional. I was the composer for Marc Wiese's 90min documentary We will hold the Line, which was screened in German television (ARD, Arte, SWR) and was nominated for the Grimme Award. Later I worked together with Leonard Küssner on the internationally recognized 90min documentary Dear Future Children, which won Best Score at the NaturVision film festival.

Over the years, I was very lucky to have my music played by professional musicians and ensembles like the German Film Orchestra Babelsberg, Budapest Scoring Orchestra, Matangi String Quartet and many more.

New TBA projects with my music for 2022/2023 are in the pipeline and I am very excited to share them soon here!

I am a passionate musician and teacher with extensive experience in Persian music. My training in the Setar has taken me under the wing of significant figures in contemporary Persian music, especially Massoud Shaari and Hossein Alizadeh. Both teachers have had a decisive influence on my musical development and my understanding of the intricacies of the Persian musical tradition.

Additionally, I have an academic background in composition, which has broadened and deepened my approach to music. Studying composition has allowed me to better understand the creative processes behind music and integrate these insights into my teaching.

Through the guidance of Shaari and Alizadeh, I have not only learned technical skills in playing setar, but also developed a deep understanding of the cultural and theoretical aspects of Persian music. These experiences shape my teaching and enable me to offer my students a thorough and inspiring education.

In my courses I combine traditional techniques with modern teaching methods to make the beauty and complexity of Persian music accessible. I look forward to sharing my passion for the Setar and Persian music with my students and helping them find their own musical voice.
