Eishan Ensemble

Eishan Ensemble returns in 2026 with a powerful national tour celebrating their 10th anniversary. Led by Iranian-Australian tar virtuoso and composer Hamed Sadeghi, the ARIA-nominated ensemble weaves Persian classical music with contemporary jazz and cinematic improvisation, creating a sound both deeply rooted and boldly modern.

Joined by Michael Avgenicos (saxophone), Adem Yilmaz (percussion), and Maximillian Alduca (double bass), Eishan Ensemble has developed a distinctive and emotive musical language shaped by the diverse backgrounds and artistry of its members.

Over the past decade, the ensemble has toured extensively throughout Australia, Europe, and Asia, performing to acclaim at major venues and festivals including the Sydney Opera House, Melbourne Recital Centre, Auckland Arts Festival, WOMADelaide, Barcelona BAM, London Jazz Festival, Rome Jazz Festival, the Perth, Brisbane and Melbourne International Jazz Festivals, Sydney Festival, Brisbane Festival, and many more.

This special anniversary tour offers audiences an intimate, moving, and globally resonant musical experience.
