Mina Jafari (Persian: مینا جعفری) is an Iranian chorister. She began her work with Tehran Symphony Orchestra[1] and went on to be part of several important choirs like National Orchestra Choir and Damour Vocal Band led by Faraz Khosravi Danesh.[2] Her work as a female singer in Iran was groundbreaking at the time, she and her choir performed in national TV which was dubbed "breaking yet another taboo" by the media[3] because women are not allowed to sing in Islam. Her performance made way for more female choirs to perform in national TV.[4]
