Behzad Ranjbaran
Concerto for Violin, Viola, and Orchestra

"[Virginia Symphony's] music director, JoAnn Falletta, and Ranjbaran were classmates at Juilliard. ...[In 2008] Falletta received a special award from the American Society for Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) for championing contemporary music; the prize included an opportunity to commission a new work. 'When ASCAP gave me the award, I immediately thought of Ranjbaran,' Falletta told Virginia's Daily Press. 'I've had a long professional relationship with him, and I love his music.'"
