Roots Revival at Morgenland Festival Osnabrueck

“A Virtual Rebirth of a Cancelled Performance” This clip consists of two pieces composed and arranged by Mehdi Aminian inspired by Maria Casandra Hauși’s songs from Maramures. In 2020, Mehdi Aminian was invited to Morgenland Festival Osnabrück to put together a project for the “Balkan beyond Brass” annual theme of the festival. However, with the emergence of the dark clouds of the Pandemic, the festival was cancelled and Roots Revival team together with Morgenland Festival decided to create a production which metaphorically reflects our approach towards the paradoxical existence of live music and musicians during the pandemic; a tragedy taken with humor and serenity in anticipation for better times. Depicting the musicians on the tombstones at the Merry Cemetery of Săpânța reflects best our approach to the hard times of the pandemic. Musicians: Mehdi Aminian - Ney & compositions Maria Casandra Hauși- Vocals Hristina Beleva - Gadulka Feras Cha
