Home & Garden Concert: Rahim Alhaj and Ehsan Shafiee
Home of arts patrons Richard and Enica Schulze
Wine, lunch, Valet $70
Address provided with ticket purchase.
Rahim AlHaj, considered one of the world’s finest oud players, teams up with Persian strings specialist Ehsan Shafiee in a program of Arabic and Persian classical and contemporary music. Rahim, well know for his collaborations with musicians from intimate ensembles to symphony orchestras, is well documented by Smithsonian Folkways and his numerous CDs. Setar player and composer Ehsan Shafiee bridges the traditions of Persian classical music with contemporary and cross-cultural influences. This music from the ancient Mediterranean left its lasting influence in Spain during the Middle Ages.
The Preston Hollow venue is well known to ONS subscribers for its elegant contemporary music room and hospitality area provided by hosts The Schulze'. The concert will take place in the outside garden and pool area, with an outside bar easily accessible throughout the wine reception and savory bites at intermission.
