From a tender age, Farid Saadatmand’s life was steeped in music. Under the watchful eye of his father, he found his voice, blossoming into a solo singer of national acclaim. But this was just the prelude.

Holding a degree in Mining Engineering, Farid’s life took an artistic turn, finding his true calling in music. His encounter with Majid Entezami opened the gates to a realm of film music and composition, a path less traveled but rich in rewards.

Mentored by luminaries like Farhad Fakhreddini and Kambiz Roshanravan, Farid dove deep into harmony, music theory, and organology. Every lesson, a note added to his ever-growing symphony.

Over 200 vocal pieces and numerous instrumental compositions later, Farid has etched his name in the annals of Iranian orchestral and film music. From the haunting tunes of “Armaghane Tariki” to the emotive scores of “Parvaneh” and “Nafas,” his music speaks a universal language.

What sets Farid apart is his ability to marry traditional Iranian music with modern orchestration. His collaborations, be it with Salar Aghili or Mohammad Motamedi, are not just songs; they are conversations between the old and the new.

Farid’s contributions transcend composition. A scholar, critic, and educator, he has illuminated the world of Iranian music through television programs and international collaborations, bringing a slice of Iran to the global stage.

As Farid Saadatmand continues to compose and inspire, he remains a beacon of innovation in the world of music. His journey is a testament to the power of bridging worlds through melodies and harmonies.
