THE GOLDEN ROAD
The Golden Road takes us on a journey along the sublime and sophisticated musical roads of the ancient civilizations of Afghanistan, India, and Iran.
Three ambassadors of the music of these influential cultures come together to transcend borders and play their rich, ancestral melodies, seldom heard together. The dialogues between the rubab of Afghan master Homayoun Sakhi, the bamboo flute of the prodigious Shashank Subramanyam, and the Persian setar of virtuoso Kiya Tabassian are enriched and accompanied by the dazzling playing of percussionist Hamin Honari.
Constantinople
Inspired by the ancient city illuminating the East and West, Constantinople was founded in 2001 in Montreal by its artistic director, Kiya Tabassian.
The ensemble has 20 albums to its credit on labels Analekta, Atma, World Village, Buda Musique, Ma Case, Dreyer Gaido and Glossa. Over the course of the decade, Constantinople has created nearly 50 works and travelled to more than 270 cities in 55 countries.
