The Miraz Ensemble was created in 2007 and is a more of a different approach than “Hidden…” The songwriting has grown to more of an orchestral, cinematic feel, perfect for film soundtracks. Sarama has included the literary works of Iranian poets Hafez and Rumi and various chants from around the world into her lyrics. “I feel we have reached a pinnacle to where we want to be musically for now,” states Sarama. “The audiences we have performed to also like the new material, it’s more listener friendly but does not fall into the mainstream.

“Technologically the ensemble is more efficient as well. ” explains Miraz. “We do not have to carry a ton of gear if we don’t we have to. I can do everything without any playbacks or unreliable computers. And I can change my setup to nearly any size at a whim and do different versions of what we have done. We are very flexible”.
