Bristol – Duo concert with Avi Avital – 1 August 2014 – Bristol Old Vic – United Kingdom

An encounter between the virtuoso harpsichord player Mahan Esfahani and mandolin artist Avi Avital describing their meeting through the music of Bach.

From very different backgrounds in Iran and Israel, both men are driven by a passion for their music and contemporary resonance of their instruments, one dating back to the early renaissance, the other to ancient Persia. This is their meeting point.
