In 2017, she wrote tänzerisch an der Kante, which was written for Ensemble Musikfabrik and her 2015 work for solo alto flute, Posht-e Hichestan, has been performed by the ensemble's flautist, Helen Bledsoe.

In 2017, her work was performed at the launch concert of the Iranian Female Composers Association, founded by Niloufar Nourbakhsh. In the same year, she was also commissioned to write a work for accordion and shawm, for Duo Mixtura (Katharina Bäuml and Margit Kern), which received its premiere at the Acht Brücken Festival.

Her 2016 work, in sechs Richtungen for accordion and tape, features the tanbur playing of Mehdi Jalali. The piece is based on a poem by Mawlana Rumi, in which he searches for his home "in six directions", and not only from a certain place. The tambur is abstracted on the tape part, and attempts a unity of the two instruments despite the different means of sound production. The piece was written for Margit Kern, but has also been performed by Eva Zöllner.
