In Celebration of Rumi

 

Shebe Sher invites you to join us for an unforgettable night of poetry and mystical music to celebrate the 795th birthday of the cherished Persian poet Mevlana Jalaliddin Rumi. This program will feature Amir Vahab, a composer, performer, singer and teacher of Persian sacred & folk music along with his ensemble and chorus who will bring to life the versus of this dearly cherished 'master'.

 

 

About Shabe Sher

 

Shabe Sher is a politically and religiously agnostic gathering formed solely to better familiarize less than dextrose Iranian-speaking individuals with the works of such superlative poets as Hafez, Rumi, Saedi, Baba Taher, and over a hundred other great poets. The events are freely structured; that is, you are not required to read, speak, or do anything whatsoever. Simply come equipped with a deep passion for life and a voracious thirst for learning about the Iranian culture.

 

Shabe Sher is regularly held on the second Tuesday (or Wednesday) of every month at the Bowery Poetry Club.

 

If you wish to receive notifications for future gatherings and program booklets of poems in advance, please email shabesher@hotmail.com and asked to be placed on the Shabe Sher mailing list.
