"In a rare Vancouver appearance, Coleman Barks leads the audience through the life and works of Rumi. His recitations will be accompanied, as Sufi poetry often was and is, with music. On stage with Barks are a group of exceptional musicians. On the barbat (precursor to the Persian oud) is the foremost player of the instrument, Iranian musician Hossein Behroozinia. Behroozinia performed with Barks on his last Vancouver visit, almost a decade ago, to a sold-out audience at the Chan Centre. On sitar is maestro Mohamed Assani, on tombak is Hamin Honari, with vocals by Jamal Salavati. The musicians will trace Rumi's own life journey, by playing music from Afghanistan, Iran and Turkey.
