Here, ancient instruments and contemporary media intersect, creating a dialogue between heritage and innovation.
The platform invites you to explore — to listen, to observe, and to experience art beyond borders.
It’s an open field where the festival’s energy continues to move — transformed, yet unmistakably alive.
