Kamyar Mohajer - Lights Away (Premiere)

05.14.25 – Portland Youth Philharmonic’s Camerata, the orchestra’s premier chamber ensemble, presented the U.S. premiere of Kamyar Mohajer’s Lights Away for String Orchestra, Santoor, and Kamancheh at The Patricia Reser Center for the Arts. Mohajer’s work invites listeners into a meditative landscape of memory and distance. The piece unfolds through shifting layers of texture and light, blending Persian modal inflections with the warmth and resonance of a modern string orchestra. Its title, Lights Away, evokes the fading glow of dusk, a poetic image of longing, reflection, and the delicate balance between presence and absence. For this performance, Camerata PYP was joined by special guests Mahtab Nadalian on santoor and Sahba Motallebi on kamancheh. The intertwining voices of these traditional Persian instruments created a rich dialogue with the strings, their expressive ornamentation weaving through the ensemble with both intimacy and grace. The result was a sound world suspended between cultures, luminous, introspective, and deeply human. Follow PYP!
