ZARATHUSTRA MANTRAS. To everyone who joined us at the last concert, thank you!
The warm, vibrant atmosphere we created together confirms what we’ve always believed: these gatherings are worth making a regular tradition.
Now, get ready for the 3rd episode of our event series, "Horizontal Notes", which promises to be special.
7:00 PM – Workshop
This time, we’re beginning with a 40-minute lecture/workshop that will introduce you to the Persian tradition of using herbs and seeds. Leading the session is Darioush Rasouli, a brilliant musician who, since 2008, has been delving into the world of Persian herbal medicine, inspired by the methods of Avicenna. Avicenna, as you may know, was not only a legendary Persian healer and herbalist but also… a musician!
8:30 PM – Concert�
The music you’ll hear on Saturday (the 25th) draws inspiration from the “Words of Zarathustra” found in the sacred Zoroastrian texts of the Avesta. Another source of creative energy for us has been Mithraism, with its timeless mantras: Good Thoughts (Humata), Good Words (Hukhta), and Good Deeds (Hvarshta).
These profound themes will come to life in original compositions by Darioush Rasouli, performed on traditional Persian instruments such as the ney and more.
Joining Darioush is Arad Emamgholi, a Kurdish virtuoso of the ancient Persian percussion instrument, the daf.
You’ll also hear electronic textures and sonic landscapes painted live by Jacek Jędrasik (Yendroll), a composer of music for theaters, animations, and more.
After the concert, there’s no rush to leave. Bring your instruments and join us as we create together a freeride of music – jam session which is opened for You too, obviously.
Food & Drinks�
Throughout the evening, enjoy delicious small meals and drinks prepared by Ben Koc, co-founder of Pracownia DobroSKY. Ben will be bringing flavors from his conceptual masurian restaurant, Czarny Jeleń (Black Deer), using carefully selected local ingredients – all offered at friendly prices.
Come. Lie down. Listen. And let’s be together!
Location: In the heart of Warsaw’s Old Town.�
