At the crossroads of the arts, this program is inspired by the poems of the renowned 13th - century Sufi poet Rumi and the texts of contemporary Iranian poet Forough Farrokhzad. Sarabande Soufie is an invitation to a mystical journey where Sufi music, poetry, and dance intertwine to evoke spiritual ecstasy and the quest for the absolute. Exploring the profound connections between Eastern musical traditions and the Western Baroque heritage, this creation weaves a soundscape where Persian modality and Baroque ornamentation respond to one another with grace and refinement. Between fire and contemplation, between East and West, Sarabande Soufie is a celebration of mystical beauty, an enchanting sarabande where your souls will dance in unison with those of the artists.
