Houbara - Resonanzen Iran 2024

The 2-day festival Houbara - Resonances Iran 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.
Both days are curated by NICA artist Sophie Emilie Beha. In cooperation with NICA artist development, Timcheh e.V. & DIWAN.
