Zola Saadi-Klein (b.2003), is an Iranian-American composer, vocalist, and artist, from Los Angeles, CA. For much of their work, they draw inspiration from their Persian and European heritage, exploring the cross-cultural bonds of music from the West and of the lands around the Mediterranean Sea. As a member of the Oberlin Buddhist Fellowship, they are interested in the concepts of how one perceives themselves in the present, and how that interconnectedness can be expressed through their music. Currently, Zola studies composition with Professor Stephen Hartke, Jesse Jones, and Michael Frazier, at Oberlin Conservatory of Music.
