Reza Samani was born in Iran and started to study the classical percussion instruments of Iran, Daf and Tombak, with renowned masters at an early age. He later extended his skills with Udu and various frame drums. His percussive repertoire ranges from classical to folkloristic with an open mind to new influences. Besides percussion, he explores the possibilities of traditional Iranian wind instruments like Karna, Zorna, and Neyanban (a traditional bagpipe).
