About this Event
The Day of Dreams concludes with our first ever Song Exchange, combining the haunting melodies of Persian song with the intimate Lied tradition, woven together with live cello improvisations. The recital features Kian Ravaei’s Gulistan alongside an evocative new commission from Composer in Residence, Emily Hazrati, paired with works by Schubert, Fauré and the Mahlers. Inspired by the 14th Century poet Hafiz’s utopian visions of harmony and Goethe’s stirring response, his West-Eastern Divan, pianist Jocelyn Freeman curates a thoughtfully interwoven programme with emerging artists for an heart-warming culmination to our 2026 Festival.
