The founder, Saeed Deihimi was diagnosed with Retinitis Pigmentosa (a degenerative disease that ultimately leads to blindness), at a young age. This unfortunately came on the heels of his older brother, Hamid, having been diagnosed with the same affliction, a few years earlier. Call it a wise, considerate and loving mother’s instinct, from a young age, they were enrolled in music classes, under the tutelage of the great Iranian pianist and composer, Anoushiravan Rohani.
Within a few years, the brothers turned their talents and newfound skills to teaching while progressing along this musical journey. This translated to giving music instruction to others in the basement of their home. That is where it all started, 40 years ago.
