Tarschool is a cultural institution whose main mission is to promote and preserve Persian classical music through musical education and performance. This musical education includes the study of various Persian instruments, such as Tar, Setar, Ud, Tombak, Daf, Kamancheh and Santoor. It also includes vocal instruction, Persian music theory and history, as well as special classes for children.
The Tarschool is also the source of certain academic projects such as the researching of and writing about subjects in the realm of Persian classical and folk music.
Musical performances include concerts of the Neydavood Ensemble and the group performance of the Tarschool students.
The Tarschool was founded by Ashkan Ghafouri in January 2001 as a school for “Tar” and “Setar” instruction. Aryan Rahmanian and other musicians joined the school soon after its establishment, at which point it evolved into a cultural center for studying, performing and appreciating Persian classical and folk music.
Classes are offered in five different locations in Northern California by Tarschool instructors or over the Internet using state of the art Skype service.
Tarschool in conjunction with the Internet Persian Classical Music radio, radiodarvish.com, created a non-profit organization called SCALE (School of Culture, Art,Literature and Entertainment) in order to promote Persian art and culture.

Support Briana Waters, a dear friend of our community who has been wrongly sent to prison. The significance of her conviction is that she is one of the first people to be sentenced as an “eco-terrorist”. She went to trial facing a possibility of 35 years for allegedly aiding in the use of a “destructive device” for a politically motivated arson. Due to a contentious trial and a hung jury, she was partially convicted and sentenced to 6 years in a federal prison. For more information please visit www.supportbriana.org. When the verdict was declared on March 6th, 2008, she was initially incarcerated at Seatac in Washington state. By August she was designated to Danbury, Connecticut to serve out the remainder of her sentence.
Briana is a loving mother of a 4 year old daughter, a passionate violinist in middle eastern, balkan, classical, and irish music. Her partner John Landgraf and their daughter Kalliope have been living with family in California and making flights to visit her. It has been a challenging time for the whole family. All the proceeds from the benefit will go to supporting the family and enabling John and Kalliope to travel back and forth to Connecticut in order to visit Briana.
