Tarkovsky Quartet presented the performance at Tehran’s Vahdat Hall on February 16, 2013.
The ensemble led by the French jazz pianist and composer François Couturier is comprised of Jean-Marc Larché (soprano saxophonist), Jean-Louis Matinier (accordionist) and German violoncellist Anja Lechner.
Established in 1977, the quartet creates the works mainly inspired by the Russian filmmaker Andrei Tarkovsky’s films.
Some 57 ensembles from over 70 submitted groups were selected to participate in this year’s festival.
The event is currently being presented at six music halls in the Iranian capital city of Tehran.
Iran's Fajr International Music Festival is part of the country's cultural programs held every year to commemorate the anniversary of the 1979 Islamic Revolution.
The 28th Fajr International Music Festival kicked off on February 13 and will run until February 19, 2013.
