THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. - Oct. 21, 2015 - PRLog -- In Concert Renowned Iranian Music Composer Farzam Salami Featuring Recording Artist Kadesh A.K.A. Desiree Coleman Jackson
Renowned music composer Farzam Salami teams up with singer Kadesh aka Desiree Coleman Jackson to perform his exclusive debut concert “Love in the Middle East", introducing a new brand of music on Wednesday, November 11, 2015 at the Janet and Ray Scherr Theater in Thousand Oaks, CA, from 7p.m. to 10:00p.m. Tickets are available now at Ticketmaster.com.
Farzam Salami, one of the most diverse and gifted musicians of our times, has birthed a new sound that will revolutionize all genres of music. From classical, R&B, hip hop, gospel, pop and even country, Salami, a multi-instrumentalist who plays 32 instruments including the piano and the Tombak, is excited to share some of his latest musical creations.
In an earlier interview, Salami says, “I have been blessed to be able to convey expression through music equally in all genres. I am mostly self-taught. I want to introduce a fusion that has never been done before! I hope to collaborate with artists like Jay Z, Beyonce, Madonna, Kanye West, Pharrell, Hans Zimmer, Yani, and Keyhan Kalhor and so many others.”
Farzam will unveil a multiplicity of unique sounds, beats and compositions created by a complex fusion of musical instruments from Iran with those of North America, producing an explosive new sound. Joining him on stage will be high octave songbird/recording artist Kadesh aka Desiree Coleman Jackson, wife of ESPN sports analyst Mark Jackson. She too will showcase a new brand of music.
“Farzam Salami brings a captivating new sound to America’s pop culture! Hot beats played on the “Tombak” drum mixed with the ancient sound of “Tar”, accompanied by his classic versatile style of piano. I am thrilled to be part of this historical event of an Iranian star crossing cultures here in America,” says Kadesh.
Salami will also perform “Utopia of Peace”, a song written and composed for President Obama and the people of America in the hope of peace. The song made its way to the White House and caused outrage within the Iranian Government, banning Salami from ever returning to his native country again.
“I believe it was fate that landed my feet here in America, and no matter where I go in life, I know that music is the universal language. Music is an expression so powerful that it can unite nations,” says Salami.
