Persepolis is a 1971 electroacoustic multimedia composition by Greek-French composer Iannis Xenakis, conceived for performance at the Shiraz-Persepolis festival and realised using large speaker arrays. The work employs dense electronic textures, amplified and processed vocal elements and pronounced spatialisation to examine acoustic architecture and theatrical staging, marking a notable phase in Xenakis's early 1970s exploration of large-scale sound and multimedia performance.
