A project by the cultural association CreaDo in cooperation with Salam Music and Brunnenpassage<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Small Wish (\u0622\u0631\u0632\u0648\u06cc \u06a9\u0648\u0686\u06a9) marks the first joint performance by Paris-based Afghan poet Ramin Mazhar and Vienna-based Iranian oud player, singer, and composer Avin Ahmadi. The focus is on storytelling\u2014told through language and sound, through poetry and song.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ramin Mazhar's poetry is shaped by his experiences of war, exile, and political oppression. With gentle melancholy, he describes landscapes of loss and turmoil, while maintaining an unshakeable hope for peace and freedom. His poems are not just texts, but performative soundscapes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Avin Ahmadi's music, on the other hand, is \u201cpure poetry\u201d in itself. Deeply rooted in Persian tradition and inspired by classical poetry, she unfolds an emotional cosmos on the oud and in her voice that expands, deepens, and reinterprets language. Together with her duo partner, pianist Reza Tavakoli, she has created new compositions especially for Ramin Mazhar's poems, in which words and music meet and respond to each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Together, the artists create a dialogue \u2013 they reveal the music of language and the language of music. Their performance is both a poetic act and a political statement: an artistic contribution to intercultural understanding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
