Farid Farjad, born Fereydoun Farrokhzad in Iran, is a renowned violin virtuoso whose soulful renditions and classical technique have etched his name into the hearts of music lovers worldwide. He is widely recognized for his series of albums titled "Anroozha" (meaning 'those days' in Persian), which consist of volumes 1 through 5, showcasing his intricate and emotive violin interpretations of traditional Persian music. Farjad's work, however, is not confined to one genre, as he seamlessly bridges the gap between Persian classical music and Western musical styles, bringing a unique and transcultural flavor to his performances.

Farjad left Iran following the 1979 Iranian Revolution and moved to the United States, where he continued to cultivate his musical career. His pieces, imbued with a deep nostalgia and profound expressiveness, are not merely performances but narratives told through the strings of his violin. With compositions that speak volumes of his heritage and journey, Farjad has made a significant impact in the world of music. Songs such as "Kayıp" and "Bana Sabır Ver" are testaments to his versatility and ability to evoke deep emotions, making Farid Farjad an iconic figure whose music transcends borders and resonates with a wide audience.
