On 25th & 26th of April we present the second edition of Houbara - Resonances Iran. The 2-day festival sees itself as a place of exchange, new encounters, and shared experiences. Houbara is dedicated to artists and ensembles who question genre boundaries, creating and exploring their own sound worlds. The focus is therefore on multi-layered, contemporary and boundary-breaking music with references to Iran.
The six different projects can be experienced on the two festival evenings in the concert hall and at JAKI, the two stages of Stadtgarten Cologne. Besides exciting concerts there will be a panel discussion in conversation with the Iranian community of Germany/Austria and a screening of short movies from Iran.
Both days are curated by NICA artist Sophie Emilie Beha. Further information about the festival is available on our website.
