| Our Business Before Hours is always a special event. It will be even more special this year with a performance of traditional Persian music by the Naghmeh Ensemble. The Naghmeh Ensemble, comprised of a group of committed musicians, is a Persian (Iranian) classical and folk music group based in Charlotte. Established in 1999, Naghmeh made it its mission to help preserve and promote the Iranian music in the southeastern United States by performing Persian music. The group has performed at many different venues in North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Tennessee. The Persian music polishes the soul, energizes the mind, and excites the body! |
