Rising star soprano Golda Zahra joins Maestra Parissa at UCLA’s Royce Hall for Nowruz: Light Always Prevails and announces her powerful debut album GOLDA ZAHRA FREE in a season of heritage, hope, and fearless artistry.

Los Angeles’ own Golda Zahra steps into 2026 with momentum and purpose.
After four sold-out concerts in 2025, the soprano — praised by the Los Angeles Times as “the rising star of the opera world” — takes the stage March 8 at Royce Hall for NOWRUZ: LIGHT ALWAYS PREVAILS, presented by Farhang Foundation. She joins the legendary Parissawith the Iranshahr Orchestra in a 40-piece performance honoring the Persian New Year and International Women’s Day — a night centered on renewal, cultural pride, and the belief that light endures.
This milestone performance arrives as Golda prepares to release her debut album, GOLDA ZAHRA FREE, produced by Steven Mercurio and recorded with the Czech National Symphony Orchestra. Beginning March 1, singles and cinematic videos will roll out ahead of the full album release in October 2026. The title reflects artistic independence and emotional clarity — a young soprano defining what her voice represents on a global stage.
Her first single, Puccini’s “O mio babbino caro” from Gianni Schicchi, arrives March 13 — her birthday — marking both a personal and artistic rebirth. With disciplined training and a deep connection to her multicultural heritage, Golda Zahra is not simply emerging; she is declaring who she is and where she is headed next.

THE JEREMIAH SHOW Featuring Randy Edelman
Legendary film composer Randy Edelman returns with his new single “21 Again” and upcoming album Waltzing On A High Wire, bringing the timeless melodies behind some of cinema’s most beloved films back to the stage in New York this March.
~
Few composers have shaped the emotional landscape of modern cinema quite like Randy Edelman. An internationally celebrated composer, conductor, and songwriter, Edelman has spent decades creating music that resonates far beyond the screen. His sweeping orchestral themes and lyrical melodies have defined films such as Gettysburg, The Last of the Mohicans, My Cousin Vinny, and The Mask, connecting audiences to the heart of each story with a style that balances cinematic scale with deeply human emotion.
Beyond film scoring, Edelman has built an equally impressive career as a songwriter and recording artist. His songs have been recorded by major artists and featured in film and television, while his body of work has earned recognition from BroadwayWorld and multiple lifetime achievement honors.
His newest chapter continues with the single “21 Again” and the upcoming album Waltzing On A High Wire, a project that reflects the same melodic storytelling that has defined his career.
This March, audiences will have the chance to experience Edelman’s music in an intimate live setting in New York. On March 13, he appears at the Cinema Arts Centre following a special screening, and on March 14, he performs at Jazz Club NYC.
From grand concert halls to small jazz rooms, Randy Edelman continues to captivate listeners—proving that timeless melody never goes out of style.
