A sonic time portal from the ancient Hindu Kush to the modern era.A master of the rabab, Qais Essar is a critically acclaimed contemporary Afghan composer, instrumentalist, and producer who channels his melodic designs through the lute-like instrument of Afghanistan. With a musical output as unique as it is diverse, Qais delves deep into the world of Indian and Afghan folk and classical music. From composing for Oscar-nominated films such as The Breadwinner, to captivating audiences at SXSW and The Kennedy Centre, he draws upon a vast range of influences spanning film and chamber music, American folk, and contemporary rock. In his debut performance at Ainslie Hall, witness ‘timeless, spellbinding music that wraps itself around you, and won’t let go’ (Sydney Morning Herald). In Afghanistan, music faces an existential threat, leading to a decreed ban on music performance and musicians encountering life-threatening violence and condemnation. Qais Essar’s creative voice stands as more important and relevant than ever. Drawing from the rich folk and classical traditions of India and Afghanistan, hear expansive, emotional, and thought-provoking works by one of the most profound rabab performers in the world. Presented by Worlds Within Worlds. Special guests Accompanying Qais Essar is Murtaza Damoon, a Sydney-based tabla player.
