Evelyn Baghtcheban (variations: Evlin Baghcheban, Baqcheban, Bahceban, born as Evlin Örge) (Persian: اولین باغچهبان, 1928 - October 31, 2010) was a Turkish-Persianopera singer (mezzo-soprano) and one of the soloists and co founder of Tehran Opera House at Rudaki Hall, and founded the Tehran Choral Group and Farah Choir.[1][2] She also taught singing at the Tehran Conservatory of Music, where her pupils included Hossein Sarshar, Pari Zanganeh, and Sudabeh Tajbakhsh.[2]
In 1967 Evlin Baghcheban founded the Tehran Choral Group. Choral music of the coronation ceremony of Mohammad-Reza Shah was performed by this group, conducted by Evlin Baghcheban at Golestan Palace.[3] In 1973, Farah Pahlavi Charity Foundation commissioned Evlin Baghcheban to establish a conservatory of music in Tehran for orphan children. In this school, Baghcheban organized a choral group called the Farah Choir. This choir recorded two albums in Vienna, Austria in 1978: "Rainbow" (compositions for children by Samin Baghchenan) and "Choral Music from Persia" (folk songs arranged by Rubik Gregorian and Samin Baghcheban).[4]
On the 10th occasion of Evlin Baghcheban's death, her son, Kaveh, published a book entitled "The Days Tehran had Opera" containing old photos, historical documents and concert programmes of his mother with a CD of rare recording at Tehran Opera House in the 1960s.[5]
