Born and raised in Tehran, Arash was the first child to a family of artists. He began playing the piano at the age of 9. Mesmerized by the beauty of classical music, he soon discovered his personal sound, expressing himself by creating small pieces to perform on the piano. Later on, he was introduced to other music genres, including electronic and New Age, which would expand his horizons and shape his style as a composer.
Arash studied classical piano at the University of Tehran, where he also met his future life partner "Yeganeh Hosseininia", with whom he went on to co-found the "Lyra Duet" and released four albums: the debut album named “Tehran-Mars” which won the Gold medal of Global Music Awards in classical crossover genre(Aug-2021) and also has been nominated for the best performance and composition in the 36th Fajr Music Festival, (Barbad Awards), (Feb-2021) the second named “Eight Minutes and Twenty Seconds” and the third “Vakil Bazaar” which won the Honorary Diploma in 37th Fajr Music Festival (Feb-2022) and silver medal of Global Music Awards in contemporary folk music genre (Aug-2021) and “Akademia Music Awards” for the best Folk / Singer-Songwriter in (Jun-2021).His fourth album, 'Dasht-e Kavir,' stands out as a prime example of chamber music, showcasing a seamless fusion of his classical background with his Persian cultural heritage.
He has performed at many well-known concert halls in Tehran and across the nation, with a diverse repertoire encompassing the most outstanding works of Western classical music as well as his own compositions. He has also composed a number of music scores for movies and theatrical productions.
He tries to forge his own path in musical composition, relying on simplicity alongside an unconventional, experimental approach to music.
