Ramin Arjomand Solo
Friday, October 2 · 8:00 PM · Hell's Kitchen
Iranian-American composer-pianist Ramin Arjomand presents an evening-length solo performance that sits at the intersection of classical European piano tradition, American avant-garde jazz, and the Iranian dastgāh musical system. His long-form improvisations push the limits of spontaneous thinking while seeking a compositional unity that feels fully notated — a rare balance.
Ramin Arjomand's work draws on a complex interplay of cross-cultural creative impulses. You'll hear extremes of sound intensity, the unfettered sensibility of American jazz, and beneath it all, a quiet echo of Iranian classical tradition. The performance runs 60–90 minutes without intermission, so arrive on time — late seating isn't permitted.
The DiMenna Center is a dedicated classical music venue in Hell's Kitchen. This is a seated concert experience, intimate and focused.
