Come experience sounds exchanged along the multiple Asiatic & North African landscapes, from the Silk Road’s fiery mountains to its pearl lakes at Flushing Town Hall’s themed Mini-Global Mash up festival. Exploring the interconnectedness of music in these nomadic and sedentary paths, Flying Horses/Sonic Threads presents artists from India, Iran, Egypt, Turkmenistan, Palestine, Syria & China.
Along with textiles and ceramics, sound transferences of rhythmic patterns, lutes, zithers, fiddle technologies and songs of bards and birds spread in cross-road jam sessions and preserved new sounds born on these roads. This Mini Mash-up Festival seeks to amplify the sonic and historical threads that connect these cultures’ musically and foster creative dialogue among its still living traditions.
