Celebrate the opening of "Falnama: The Book of Omens" with a recital by Bahman Panahi, a Paris-based virtuoso of Persian classical music, an improvisational tradition related to the ragas of India. A trained calligrapher as well as musician, Panahi has appeared in concerts and workshops throughout the Middle East, North Africa, and Europe. His first American tour earlier this year included performances at Harvard University and Carnegie Hall. Learn about relationships between Iranian music and calligraphy at his informal lecture-demonstrations on October 31 and November 1.
