DESCRIPTION: The Radīf (meaning sequence or order) is the repertoire of cla
 ssical Persian music and was added to UNESCO's list of immaterial cultural 
 heritage in 2009. This collection of melodies\, divided into twelve modular
  systems – the Dastgāhs and Avâz’ – has been passed down orally for thousan
 ds of years.   Elshan Ghasimi (born in 1981 in Isfahan\, Iran) is not only 
 a virtuoso on the Persian long-necked lute tar and setar and a master of cl
 assical Persian art music\, but also a composer\, performance artist\, and 
 educator. She works at the intersection of tradition and modernity\, West a
 nd East\, music and other art forms. Language\, music\, physicality\, and d
 ramatic expression as part of a cultural whole form the basis of her work. 
 Her musical training began at the age of nine\, and she later studied at th
 e Tehran Conservatory of Music. At the age of 17\, she became the youngest 
 member of the Iranian National Orchestra. She has been living in Germany si
 nce 2016\, where she performs as a soloist\, composes\, and plays with reno
 wned ensembles such as Concerto Köln. Her work combines Persian musical her
 itage with various musical genres\, including contemporary classical music\
 , jazz\, experimental music\, and early music.   In fall 2022\, Elshan Ghas
 imi premiered the first chapter of her reinterpretation of Mirza Abdollah's
  Radīf with Dastgāh-e Shur at the Bode Museum in Berlin. She is thus the fi
 rst female musician to devote herself to the systematic renewal of this cla
 ssical tradition.   We are delighted to present this extraordinary concert 
 to kick off the new IBZ event year!   „In her playing […] every phrase is i
