Led by Iranian-Canadian pianist Behrooz Mihankhah, The Confluence Trio features an eclectic mix of his migration-shaped fusion of global musical tradition. Featuring original compositions in new arrangements, they explore shared space with curiosity and playfulness—finding resonance between their diverse backgrounds and crafting performances that are as intimate as they are adventurous.
