My Name is Niusha Shirvani, I am an Iranian (Persian) composer/teacher and a professional tar and setar player specializing in Persian traditional music.

I teach tar, setar, music theory, ear training, and music listening. 

If you are new to Persian traditional music or have some experience and want to take it to a more advanced level, you'll fit into my classes.  Whether your goal is to be a fine musician or music simply is a hobby for you, lessons will be tailored accordingly.

I strongly believe, learning music is not just about learning how to play an instrument. My tar and setar students learn music theory, ear training and music listening with me. Even If you are not thinking of playing an instrument, you can still benefit from my listening classes in which you will be learning music theory and ear training. 

There is no age limitation. Online and group lessons are also available.

If you decide to play tar or setar but do not own an instrument, you can borrow one from me.

Please contact me to book your one-hour free trial session in which you will enjoy a free lesson and will have the opportunity to ask your questions in person.

I also provide tar and setar services: replacing skin, strings, frets, and free instrument purchase consultations.
