artist photo Kourosh Zolfagharkhani (Zolani) was born in 1970 in a very small town in Iran. He began his musical training at the age of 14 and was composing at 18. He studied classical music and received a degree in musical composition in 1998.

Kourosh's music has received many awards, including two awards at the 2003 Call to Arts Festival.

Kourosh has pioneered a method of tuning the Santour in a chromatic manner, which allows western-style scales and music-styles to be performed on the instrument, thus widening the instrument's musical reach.
