LIVE SETS

In her live sets Seba Kayan combines traditional instruments from the so called “Orient”, to transform the genres. Well aware of the polemics of the expression “Orient” or “Carpet Concert”, she does not use this expression affirmatively, but rather descriptively. As a provocative impulse to open discourses, to deconstruct projected identities in the musical process.

The immersive experience combines live electronics, traditional instruments (accordion, kaval, oud), and projected visuals. Audience members are invited to sit or move around the space to engage with the sound. The project has been featured at Sonic Territories, Salam Music, Kultur Sommer Wien, Wiener Festwochen, Austrian Cultural Forum New York, Civa Festival and many more.
