She spent much of her early career fighting against bureaucratic obstacles and a misreprentation as a pop singer. The Ministry had misjudged her and gave her semi-pop tunes to perform.

Gradually, Parisa was seen at more traditional concerts, finally performing at the Shiraz Arts Festival during its last years. Parisa’s musical talent truly bloomed when she was introduced to “The Center for Preservation and Dissimination of Music”. Her recordings of this period show a tremendous depth and growth in her musical understanding.
