Een mix van huiskamerconcert en talkshow, ditmaal in oosterse sfeer
A mix of living room concert and talk show, this time in an Eastern ambiance
Many people enjoy watching the TV program Podium Klassiek on Sundays, accompanied by a drink and a snack, listening to music interspersed with conversations with fascinating guests. The Salon offers a similar atmosphere: a living room concert and talk show in one.
Following the great success of last year, SPOT Groningen is organizing the second edition of MENA is Here in May 2025, once again highlighting the richness and diversity of the arts and culture from the MENA region. The Salon will be transformed into a Persian Salon for the occasion.
One of the featured guests is the Dutch-Iranian writer and poet Kader Abdolah, not only known for his major novels such as The House of the Mosque, The Parrot Flew Over the IJssel, In Search of Ramona, and Before it is Too Late, but also as a successful translator and editor of classical masterpieces from world literature, including The Quran, 1001 Nights, and What You Seek, Seeks You.
Further information about the other guests and the musical program will be provided later.
