Farima Berenji Artistic Director, Choreographer
I cannot put the concert from tonight in words. Emotional, full of energy, oneness and beauty. Especially the last two songs and Farimas powerful and emotional Sufi whirling left me so affected. I am still shaking from the energy. Will never forget this concert. Thank you again and I hope there will be many more.
