Shahram Nazeri (Sorani Kurdish: شەهرام نازری, romanized: Şehram Nazirî,[2][3] Persian: شهرام ناظری;[4] born 18 February 1950[1]) is a contemporary Iranian tenor of Kurdish origin from Kermanshah,[5] Iran, who sings Sufi music, classical and traditional Kurdish and Persian music.

[6] He has been accompanied by some of the masters of Iranian traditional music such as Jalil Shahnaz, Hossein Alizadeh, Jalal Zolfonoun, Parviz Meshkatian and Faramarz Payvar.

Throughout his childhood, he was under the tutelage of the most renowned masters of Persian music including Abdollah Davami, Nourali Boroumand, and Mahmood Karimi.

[7] At his concert in Kermanshah in 2014, he performed a Kurdish song containing the lyrics: "I am from Kermanshah, I don’t speak Persian," prompting condemnation from Iranian authorities, and accusations of Kurdish nationalism.

“This year, I will not do the concert in (the Iranian month of) Azar in Konya in solidarity with the sufferings of the Kurdish women, men and children of Syria and to show respect for the selfless and lovely people of my country, because Rumi is the voice of human conscience and the herald of peace and friendship in the world.
