Sizdah Bedar - Norouz

Celebrating persian Norouz with music and art.

"Sizdah Bedar", also known as Nature's Day is a Persian festivity held annually on the thirteenth day of Norouz, during which people spend time in Nature. Thirteenth day of the year was thought to carry a malevolence that is to pass by praying to waters and woods. In solidarity with Uprisings in Iran a group of musicians from various backgrounds join each other to form an ensemble that blends eastern Choral folk Songs with softly woven Improvisations on  Kamance, Kora and Tabla.

Musicians: 

Walburga Walde,  Chor Conduct

Ludevico Failla , Kora

Amir Kalhor, Kamance

Steffen König, Tabla
