Living Traditions. Musik aus Korea, Indien, der Turkei und dem Iran

In the organizer's words:

On this evening, artists from four cultures will come together: Korean musicians will kick things off with their songs, which refer to the current exhibition "Ari-Arirang".

This will be followed by songs by the Indian poet Rabindranath Tagore performed by the singer Francesca Cassio. They were translated and arranged by Alain Daniélou, the founder of the Institute for Traditional Music in Berlin.

The third item on the program will be Turkish music performed by the duo Core , and the final item will be the ensemble ĀNGĀH with Radif repertoire from various centuries.

The concert is the closing event of the conference Cosmopolitan, International, Global: Music, Archives and Politics in East and West Berlin since 1963.
