SUMMARY:Tihāī Ensemble
DESCRIPTION:Tihāī Ensemble  \nTihāī is a Hindustānī music ensemble based in the Greater Vancouver region\, featuring vocalist and ensemble leader Akhil Jobanputra\, harmoniumist Mohan Bhide\, and Hriday Buddhdev on tabla and pakhavaj. A tihāī is a polyrhythmic technique where a musical idea is reiterated three times\, typically returning to a composition’s mukhḍā (refrain) or the sam (first beat). It is a playful element of Hindustānī music utilized in improvisation and to denote the conclusion of a composition and its elaboration. Hindustānī music has existed in its current form for hundreds of years\, but it is also a living tradition that is constantly evolving. The musicians of this ensemble are dedicated to the past and future of this musical practice and to presenting Hindustānī music in an approachable\, engaging\, and authentically creative manner. Each artist complements and inspires one another\, progressing towards an emotional crescendo through spontaneous improvisations\, gradually constructing an intricate edifice that merges melody\, rhythm\, poetry\, and one another in musical unison. \nAkhil Jobanputra | Vocalist  \nAkhil Jobanputra is a student\, performer\, educator\, and curator of Indian classical music. He began his musical journey at the age of three\, learning from various teachers across different gharanas and traditions over the years. Since 2017\, he has been receiving intensive training under the tutelage of the highly respected gurus Dr. Pandit Arun Dravid and Pandit Arijit Mahalanabis. Featured as one of CBC’s “30 Under 30” Canadian classical musicians in 2024\, Akhil is a practitioner of various genres of Hindustani vocal music\, including Dhrupad\, Khayal\, and Thumri.

SUMMARY:Persian Poetry Night
DESCRIPTION:Persian Poetry Night · This session is in Farsi · این جلسه به زبان فارسی است \n\n\nAbout the Event\nFragmented Body: The Collapse of the Unified Image of Woman \n  \nIn contemporary women’s poetry\, the body no longer necessarily appears as a harmonious and integrated whole; instead\, it is divided into smaller fragments. This fragmentation is not merely a visual technique; it reflects an experience in which women’s identity\, under the pressure of the social gaze\, gender\, violence\, memory\, and anxiety\, is no longer a unified “self.” In fact\, each part of the body can carry a part of the experience\, and the poet uses the body to express the fragmentation and reconstruction of identity. \n\nWhat to Expect\n\nنشست نهم\nمهمان دکتر لیلا صادقی\nبدن تکه‌تکه: فروپاشی تصویر یکپارچه از زن\nبه همراه نمایش فیلم جام جان از ناصر صفاریان\n\n\n\n\n\nشب شعر فارسی\nنشست نهم \nمهمان دکتر لیلا صادقی \nبدن تکه‌تکه: فروپاشی تصویر یکپارچه از زن \nدر شعر معاصر زنان، بدن دیگر الزامن به‌صورت یک کل هماهنگ و یکپارچه ظاهر نمی‌شود، بلکه به قطعاتی کوچک تر تقسیم می‌شود. این تکه‌تکه‌شدن فقط یک شگرد تصویری نیست و نشان‌دهنده‌ی تجربه‌ای است که در آن هویت زن تحت فشار نگاه اجتماعی، جنسیت، خشونت، خاطره و اضطراب، دیگر یک «من» یکپارچه نیست. درواقع، هر بخش از بدن می‌تواند حامل بخشی از تجربه باشد و شاعر از بدن برای بیان فروپاشی و بازسازی هویت استفاده می‌کند. \nبه همراه نمایش فیلم جام جان از ناصر صفاریان \n\nموضوع: بدن تکه‌تکه: فروپاشی تصویر یکپارچه از زن \nمهمان: دکتر لیلا صادقی \nزبان برنامه: فارسی \nنمایش فیلم: جام جان از ناصر صفاریان
