Pejman Hadadi was born in 1969 in Tehran, Iran. He began studying Tombak at the age of ten with the masters of the instruments Asadollah Jejazi and Bahman Rajabi. In 1990 Hadadi began performing and recording with ensembles of persian classcial music such as Oshagh as well as Indian, Turkish and American musicians. In 1995, Hadadi joined Dastan Ensemble. Since then he has also worked with some of the most important Persian musicians, Hossein Alizadeh, Ali Akbar Moradi, Ardeshir Kamkar and Parisa. He has composed percussion pieces for dance and his CD recordings include the improvisational works Fire of Passion, Whisper, Midnight Sun, Dastan Trio and A Tale of Love among others. Hadadi''s modern approach to the traditional Tombak lies in his ability to produce melodic patterns within rhythmic structures as well as his experiment in creating complex variations on the basic sounds of Tombak. Hadadi also brings to Persian rhythm the influence of Indian percussion which has studied over the years. A highly acclaimed percussionist, Hadadi is the recipient of the prestigious Durfee Foundation Master Musician Fellowship and the founder of World Percussion Academy in Southern California where he teaches Tombak and Daf.
