Biography
Biography
Hossein Alizadeh (Persian: حسین علیزاده; born 24 August 1951) is an Iranian musician, composer, radif preserver, researcher, educator, and a prominent performer of the tar, shurangiz and setar. Alizadeh has collaborated with numerous vocalists and instrumentalists, including Shahram Nazeri, Mohammad-Reza Shajarian, Alireza Eftekhari and Jivan Gasparyan. He has also performed with various orchestras and ensembles, both in Iran and internationally, contributing significantly to contemporary interpretations of Persian classical music.
Music career
Alizadeh was born in 1951 in Tehran. His father was from Urmia and his mother from Arak. As a teenager he attended secondary school at a music conservatory until 1975. His music studies continued at the University of Tehran, where his focus was composition and performance. He began postgraduate studies at the Tehran University of Art. After the Iranian Revolution, he resumed his studies at the University of Berlin, where he studied composition and musicology.
Alizadeh plays the tar and setar. He has performed with two of Iran's national orchestras, as well as with the Aref Ensemble, the Shayda Ensemble, and Masters of Persian Music. In Europe, his first professional performance was with the Bejart Ballet Company’s orchestra in a performance of a Maurice Béjart ballet called Golestan.
