Peyman Yazdanian (Persian: پیمان یزدانیان, born in 1968) is an Iranian pianist and music composer. He has written over forty pieces for solo piano and has composed for both national and foreign feature films. He wrote original soundtracks for plays and multimedia.

Early life[edit]

He was trained by pianist Farman Behboud. He attended the courses of Gerhard Geretschlaeger in Vienna and Ginette Gaubert in Marseille. In conducting, he studied under Iradj Sahbai in Strasbourg.

Career[edit]

As a pianist-interpreter, he won first prize in the competition of excellence at the Musical Confederation of France in 2000. He is recognized for his interpretations of works by Rachmaninov, Liszt, Beethoven, and Chopin.

In 1998, he began writing film music for the Iranian director Abbas Kiarostami's The Wind Will Carry Us.

Peyman Yazdanian composed the music for Summer Palace by Chinese filmmaker Lou Ye, a film selected for the Cannes Film Festival in 2006. He composes for Iranian film makers, such as One Night for Niki Karimi (2005) or Fire Party for Asghar Farhadi (2006), but also contributes to French-Italian productions (The Forbidden Chapter in 2006), German productions (Full Metal Village, best documentary at the Guild of German Art House Cinemas in 2007) or American productions such as Man Push Cart (selected at the Sundance Film Festival).

Peyman Yazdanian writes music for the theater as well as solo piano works. He is the creator of a new form of expressionism based on Persian motifs and oriental accents. He is currently preparing the recording of his work A Tea Collection for String Ensemble, dedicated to the benefits of tea, by the London Symphonic Orchestra.[citation needed]
