Sol Music Center was established by
Bahman Mehabadi in 1983 in order to
provide a cultural atmosphere that
attracts people to learn about the
art of classical music.
Founded in Tabriz, it moved to
Tehran after a few years. Bahman
Mehabadi, violinst, is a member of
Tehran Symphonic Orchestra. He also
plays and teaches classical guitar
and researches in different areas of
music (history and performance). He
has continuously worked on classical
music education, writing articles,
recording albums and performing
concerts.

Sol
Music Center formed its ensemble in 1996, and
began performing concerts and recording albums
soon after. The outcome of its efforts were
three albums by the names of "Tabestan"
(Summer), "Payiiz" (Fall), and "Zemestan"
(winter).
In a forward movement, the ensemble employed Sol
Music trainees for the forth album, "Shadi"
(Gaiety), which was performed by three violins.
In "Shadi", Bahman Mehabadi, Houman Behzadi, and
Pourya Keshavarz play the first, second and
third violins respectively.
The fifth release of Sol music ensemble, "Niayesh"
(Benedictus), was a new experience, using three
violins and a guitar. In "Niayesh" Bahman
Mehabadi, Pourya Keshavarz and Hooman Akhtari
play the violin and Nahid Abtahi performs on
classical guitar. To improve and develop the
work, this album
was released on CD by the newly-established Sol
music company.
The ensemble has always been faithful to its
goals towards developing and instructing pure
classical music, believing it to be a universal
heritage of mankind and a deep inspirational
source to contemplation and insight.
Sol music center's former trainees ,who are now
teaching and studying in leading universities in
Europe and North America, are true verifications
to this Center's high goals. Masoud Bahari , a
freelance violinist in Sweden, has been among
the former students of Sol institute and has
kept in touch
with the group ever since his departure. Houman
Behzadi, another former student of Sol Music
Center, is now completing his degree of Bmus in
violin performance in the University of Western
Ontario, Canada. He also plays in the UWO
Symphonic Orchestra.
