Rohani’s life took a significant turn after the Revolution in 1979. Like many artists of his generation, he left and settled abroad, eventually living in the United States. This transition marked a new chapter in his life, both personally and professionally. While adapting to a new cultural environment, he continued composing, performing, and recording music, remaining closely connected to audiences living outside the country.
Living in exile brought emotional challenges, but it also reinforced Rohani’s sense of artistic purpose. His music during this period often carried a deeper sense of nostalgia and reflection, resonating strongly with the diaspora. Concerts and albums released abroad helped preserve a musical heritage that many feared might be lost, and his work became a bridge between past and present for displaced communities.
