Hello friends of Roots Revival. Soon we are going to share with you here the full concert of the 18th Nov, the beginning of Roots Revival Series project. Stay tuned and check out some shots from the concert!
This project will promote the musical heritage of underrepresented genres from different parts of the world through a unique and innovative approach and enable unmediated perspectives in other cultures.
In the first four years we will invite 12 musicians representing 12 different musical cultures to Vienna to work with the Vienna-based Roots Revival Ensemble (Mehdi Aminian, Helene Glüxam, David Six and Nora Thiele). This collaboration will result in new interpretations that combine tradition and innovation.
In the first year we will focus on the Anatolian music cultures in three seasons (1. Ashik music; 2. Spiritual music of the Alevis; 3. Kurdish music). The first season was dedicated to the Ashik music represented by Petra Nachtmanova, musician and expert on Ashik and Alevi music and poetry. In an artistic dialogue that connects different musical traditions, Petra Nachtmanova and the Roots Revival Ensemble performed an interpretation inspired by a diverse Anatolian Ashik repertoire.

Roots Revival started in 2013 at the initiative of Mehdi Aminian which coordinated all the projects till now.
Roots Revival is an international project in which each musician comes from a different cultural background in an effort to focus on musical roots around the world and to bring traditional music at a crossroad of contemporary experiments influenced by traditional, jazz, folk and world music.
