Setar and kora masters bring the world to Bruges
An estuary is a place where a widened river meets the sea, where freshwater and saltwater mingle and the tides are obvious. In L’Estuaire, Asia and Africa, Persia and Senegal and setar and kora flow together in a surprising programme. Persian setar player Kiya Tabassian's Constantinople ensemble engage in a friendly dialogue with kora virtuoso Ablaye Cissoko. Together they create a wondrous, fleeting uni(que)verse.
