Sepideh Raissadat

Sepideh Raissadat features prominently in the new generation of classical Persian vocalists. She began studying Persian music at age 10 with the famous Iranian diva Parissa and, later, with renowned masters Parviz Meshkatian and Mohammad-Reza Lotfi. With five critically acclaimed albums to her credit, Sepideh began her recording career at age 19 with an album alongside Parviz Meshkatian (Konj-e Saburi, 2000).

She later garnered invitations from prestigious institutions such as UNESCO and the Vatican, and from the international media, such as the BBC and RAI.

In addition to her regular collaborations with Iranian musicians, Sepideh has worked with such prominent musicians and ensembles as Franco Battiato, Andrea Parodi, Ensemble Maraghi, Nexus Percussion, Constantinople, and GRAMMY Award-winning Roomful of Teeth.

A PhD candidate at the University of Toronto and a recipient of Canada’s Joseph-Armand Bombardier Award for Doctoral Scholarship, Sepideh has appeared as a guest speaker and artist-in-residence at various universities including Yale University, the University of Washington, the University of Cologne, and the University of Bologna.
