Various music styles in Iran
The number of concerts held in various styles indicates how prevalent a style is among the people. Pop music is the most common type of music among the people of Iran. In 1398 (2019/20), 198 pop concerts were performed in the country, more than any other type of concert. Holding concerts is one of the most important ways of generating revenue for producers in the music field. According to Farhikhtegan, making an album is generally accompanied by a loss, and holding concerts compensates for the losses incurred. Holding concerts abroad yields the greatest profitability for producers, and for this reason producers tend to attract Iranians abroad. More interesting, however, are the less popular styles in Iran; for example orchestral or jazz concerts, which are lesser-known styles, but in 1398 (2019/20) they were able to hold 5 concerts.
