“How can you rethink folk music for the future or for the present from a different place?” This is how the Iranian-born, Vienna-based electronic musician frames the core idea of her project. For her, dealing with musical traditions also has a social function, because it brings people together. Community and the coming together of people are central themes in Sharafi’s compositions, for which she collaborates with various artists and musicians.
