The Ava Choir

The Ava Choir is the first and the only Iranian choir in Los Angeles, under the direction of the creative young
composer, conductor, and vocalist Mr. Edris Foroughi, who oversees an enthusiastic Iranian group.

The choir was formed in 2018 by Foroughi, and its mission is to promote Iranian culture, music, and poetry through
performances of an eclectic mix of music including well-known Persian choir pieces, Iranian contemporary and folklore tunes rearranged by Foroughi, and new songs composed exclusively for the Ava choir by Foroughi and other composers.

The Ava Choir’s first stage appearance took place during their 2019 Mehregan concert, which was organized by the
Calabasas Rotary Club. Although the pandemic has stopped the choir from in-person rehearsing and live performances,
they continue to be one of the most productive Iranian choirs outside of Iran with their many virtual performances,
