Women, Life, Freedom, Rebirth

As the revolution continues in Iran and fury and frustration grow, young Iranian composers channel their rage into transformative music. This evening of modern Iranian classical music for piano and voice features four premieres of new works by young Iranian composers and brings to the forefront the music and words of women. Far away from the reality of the fight against a violent, theocratic regime, we come together to share in stories and voices from the frontlines of the Iranian revolution.

Join Iranian pianist Khashayar ‘Kaya’ Amri and Ukrainian-Australian singer Billie Tumarkin for an evening of music in solidarity with Iran and other communities worldwide fighting for survival.

With text by Iranian-Australian writer Roumina Parsamand.
