Meet composer Aftab Darvishi in Stift Festival.

‘A life that crosses continents’, is how the originally Iranian composer Aftab Darvishi summarizes her biography so far. A life that is also reflected in her music. The influence of different cultures is audible, including her years of study in the Netherlands. The human dimension always predominates. It delivers music that immediately appeals and touches the heart. Music with which she can no longer go freely and uninhibited in her native Iran. In this Stift Solo, Aftab Darvishi brings an impressive account of diversity, inclusivity, women’s power and women’s rights. And of course her embracing music sounds.
