Nima Atrkar Rowshan (Persian: نیما عطرکار روشن‎; born September 5, 1985), also known as Nima A. Rowshan, is an Iranian contemporary classical music composer.[1] Rowshan studied music in Iran and France. He has studied orchestration in École Normale de Musique de Paris with Michel Merlet. He has also received lessons from Alireza Mashayekhi and Mehran Rouhani.[2] A collection of his works, "Silence – Rest", is published under Hermes Records in 2012.[3] His works have also been published by Petrichor Records,[4] Noise a Noise,[5] and Sound Carrier.[6] His music is often described as post-minimal.[3]

He was commissioned by SWR to compose a piece for Klangforum Wien[7] to be premiered in the 100th edition of Donaueschingen Festival.[8][9]

He is based in Tehran,[10] and his works have been performed variously in festivals and events in the US, Europe, Asia and the Middle East. He is also the curator of discussion panels in Tehran Contemporary Music Festival and art director of Aleph Foundation.[11][12]

He began studying music by playing the piano. By entering the Art University of Tehran in 2005, he studied with Hamed Mohajer and, at the same time, he started composition experimentally and through studying the great composers. Nima later attended master classes of Alireza Mashayekhi. He co-founded "Ensemble-M" in 2006 to perform and introduce contemporary classical music in Iran.
