➤ Doors open: 19:00
➤ Concert: 20:00
➤ Intermezzo: 20.40

Poets like Rumi, Khayyam and Farrokhzad meet Karen Blixen and Piet Hein in a way that makes it feel natural to span centuries and continents. Human aspects which are the same regardless of time and place.

The music moves in the space between jazz, classical music and Persian folklore, and the ensemble, which includes a string quartet, a jazz quartet and a Persian duo, plays alternately in smaller constellations and as a full ensemble. The tightly arranged mixes with the free and improvisational. Højskole singing meets prayer calls.

As a singer and composer, Camilla Dayyani has released 4 albums under her own name. She has revolved around the music in the lyrics and two of the previous albums are thus with music and various Danish poems by, among others, Pia Tafdrup; Dan Turéll, Johannes Jensen and Piet Hein.
