Live music: Sinan Arat & Sufidelica
Sinan Arat (ney, vocals) and his musical friends Tarang Poddar (percussion) and Donatas Bielunskis (bass, keys) present traditional Sufi music from various repertoires such as Ottoman classical, Anatolian folk, and Qawwali. In the first session, Nicolle Bötcher paints a skirt with Arabic calligraphy, which will be worn by dancer Rasha Vrede in the second session. In that second session, Sufi music blends with live electronics and ethno jazz.
