Qayna

QAYNA is a musical show for four women singers and eight musicians, each from different worlds and with different inspiration but based on the pre-Islamic song traditions of the Qayna. They come together in a musical space with western voices and instruments, with the occasional interlude of lute and saz baglama. A journey in time through the written and spoken word. A stroll through the extraordinary experience that was the Qayna, the free/enslaved women that also came from conquered people ? free due to their perfect mastery of poetry and vocabulary, of singing and instruments.
