Parnian (Pari) Bahrami Asl is a composer and pianist based in Canada, with roots in Iran. She began her musical journey at a young age and has since developed a distinctive voice that blends Western classical traditions with Persian musical elements. Her work is deeply influenced by visual art, poetry, psychology, and multicultural storytelling, often exploring intense emotional states and inner worlds through sound. She is also passionate about interdisciplinary collaboration.
Pari’s music has been performed in academic and festival settings, including the São Paulo Contemporary Composers Festival and the University of Toronto New Music Festival (Fervent by the MinMax Electroacoustic Orchestra, and SNATS: Silver, an art song for soprano, piano, and cello). Other projects include writing for the University of Toronto Student Composer Opera (With the Telling Comes the Magic, premiered January 2026), Gravity and Ghosts for string quartet performed by Music Around the Corner, and Fragments of an Imagined World performed by the Bedford Trio.
