Explore the exotic world of Persian music through Iranian instruments<\/p>\n
Embark on a journey back to the cradles of ancient civilisations<\/p>\n
In the eclectic musical universe of Ensemble Kamaan, borders are abolished to make way for a bewitching alchemy through the mystical conversation between Amir Amiri\u2019s sant\u016br, Showan Tavakol\u2019s kam\u0101ncheh, Behnaz Sohrabi\u2019s rabab and Olivier Marin’s viola. Drawing on the diversity of Persian melodies, these four virtuosi venture into innovative territory, aspiring to universal connection.<\/p>\n
It is in this perspective that they invite whirling dervish Shraddha Blaney into this project. Through the trance of her whirling, Shraddha Blaney traces the paths that lead to the Divine. Performing the ritual of rotation to become aligned with cosmic motion, a dervish (literally \u201cdoorway\u201d) is an entrance from the material world to the spiritual world, a connection between the two worlds.<\/p>\n
To the sound of finely ornamented music, reviving a Persian culture, the whirling of the dervish will be accompanied by a series of photographs of doors and windows, opened and closed, taken in the Iranian countryside.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"template":"","location_type":[350136],"event_category":[373313,373314,373460,373341,373474,373355],"area_type":[350139],"event_language":[],"series":[],"event_category_other":[],"class_list":["post-1288532","event","type-event","status-publish","hentry","location_type-indoor-en","event_category-dance-en","event_category-music-en","event_category-music-folk-music-en","event_category-dance-other-folk-dance-en","event_category-music-media-multi-arts-en","event_category-dance-media-multi-arts-en","area_type-non-local","search-detail"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.artseventsdb.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event\/1288532","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.artseventsdb.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.artseventsdb.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/event"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.artseventsdb.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1288532"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"location_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.artseventsdb.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/location_type?post=1288532"},{"taxonomy":"event_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.artseventsdb.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event_category?post=1288532"},{"taxonomy":"area_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.artseventsdb.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/area_type?post=1288532"},{"taxonomy":"event_language","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.artseventsdb.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event_language?post=1288532"},{"taxonomy":"series","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.artseventsdb.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/series?post=1288532"},{"taxonomy":"event_category_other","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.artseventsdb.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event_category_other?post=1288532"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
