“A glorious voice once destined to be hidden in choirs half a world away is soaring free in Queensland, introducing audiences to Iranian folklore and song.”
—Leanne Edmistone, Sunday Mail Brisbane
Shirin Majd is an Iranian born classically trained singer, songwriter and the Artistic Director of the Sweet Sound Ensemble, which aspires to create a fusion of music from diverse cultures around the world.
Throughout her career, Shirin Majd has been an active artistic creator across Australia and internationally, and promotes cultural awareness and understanding with an emphasis on issues for women from the Middle East. As an Artistic Director, she is always looking for ways to collaborate across cultures with exceptional artists from Australia and abroad.
In 2019, Shirin Majd had an international debut of her most recently created show, Kooch: Songs of Migration at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in Scotland and at SUNPAC in Brisbane, Australia. The word Kooch in Farsi means, “migration,” and was presented as an artistic performative and collaborative visual experience with composer Mastaneh Nazarian. Audiences were moved by the creative adventure, personal expression, and her story of migration, which was instigated by the fact that Iran’s regime does not allow for performance opportunities for female singers.
