Arash Fouladvand (born September 1982) is an Iranian composer, orchestra conductor, and choir director, active in both classical and Iranian music.
Life
He began playing the piano at the age of 8. In 2003, 2004, and 2005, while studying civil engineering at the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Tehran, he organized piano recitals to support the Mahak Charity Institute. In 2006, he moved to Paris to continue his studies in civil engineering. While pursuing his doctorate at the French Institute of Petroleum, he passed the entrance exam for the French conservatories and was accepted to study harmony and orchestration at the National Conservatory of France in Aubervilliers.
In 2009, Arash Fouladvand officially began his cultural activities in France by helping to establish the Bahar Cultural Association. [1] The following year, he founded the Bahar Choir, initially bringing together around ten members and training amateur choristers. Two years later, he invited students and graduates from Paris’s top conservatories to join him in founding the East Paris Philharmonic Orchestra. [2]
Since 2012, he has served as the primary composer and conductor of both the East Paris Philharmonic Orchestra and the Bahar Choir, presenting concerts such as Voice of Peace and Silk Road in Paris. [3]
The positive reception to these concerts and the interest expressed by Iranians living in the UK led him to establish a branch of the Bahar Choir in London in 2016. This London branch held its first concert in May 2017. Between 2012 and 2014, he collaborated with UNESCO as project director and conductor for the Voice of Peace concerts, which resulted in the release of several Voice of Peace albums. The choir group “Bahaar,” led by the young Iranian musician and composer Arash Fooladvand, performed one of the songs by Aref Qazvini in a unique way to support the widespread public protests in Iran.
