Bach & Khayyam

Even if more than 600 years separate the lives of&nbsp;John-Sebastien Bach (1685–1750)&nbsp;and&nbsp;Omar Khayyam (1048–1131), these two geniuses were made to meet each other. Their visions of the world—as a perfect match of mathematical mastery and a profoundly high level of spirituality—bring them into a delightful dialogue and trace a clear path toward the sublime. In this program,&nbsp;<a href="https://constantinople.ca/en/">Constantinople</a>&nbsp;brings these two artists into conversation, where the sacred and spirituality transcend borders. For this new creation, Constantinople proposes arrangements of some of&nbsp;Johann Sebastian Bach’s most beautiful spiritual songs and arias, placed in dialogue with&nbsp;poems by Omar Khayyam, sung in Persian and responding to Bach’s music. <a href="https://constantinople.ca/en/musiciens/kiya-tabassian-2/">Kiya Tabassian</a>&nbsp;is one of today’s finest setar players, a composer, and the artistic director of&nbsp;Constantinople, the internationally acclaimed Montreal-based ensemble renowned for its innovative dialogue between early music and global traditions. Deeply rooted in Persian classical music, he has created and performed major projects worldwide, including&nbsp;Bach &amp; Khayyam. <a href="https://constantinople.ca/en/musiciens/hana-blazikova/">Hana Blazikova</a>, an exceptional Czech soprano renowned worldwide for her interpretation of Bach, sings the arias in this program, bringing unparalleled depth and emotion to the performance. Elite Events Hub&nbsp;thanks you for attending this event. We are thrilled to welcome you to an evening of music, poetry, and spiritual reflection that bridges cultures, centuries, and traditions.
