Devin Maghen
A Very Special Performance of “Mard-e Tanha”
Farhang Foundation is extremely proud to present a very special edition of #FarhangPerformances featuring a truly remarkable young man.
Devin Maghen is a musician, singer/songwriter, and student at UCLA’s Herb Alpert School of Music, and part of Farhang Foundation's historic Iranian music program at UCLA. At age sixteen, Devin was involved in a severe motor vehicle accident which caused him significant vision loss, setting him on a new route in life.
He crossed paths with Beyond Vision Music Foundation, a music organization that helps the blind, where he began as a student and now volunteers as a part-time instructor. Devin feels music has the power to heal and bring people together. In addition to performing, he aspires to teach and perform music in a future career.
"“ranian music is the guiding force that has propelled me to my current place in life because it has been with me since birth--the melodic beauty of Iranian music aids in self-expression and it is my pleasure to share this performance with Farhang Foundation and its audience.” ~ Devin Maghen
