About
Arifa sheds new light on Eastern music. The band welcomes three female singers and string players from China, Iran and Bulgaria. ‘Beautiful musical alchemy’ (het Parool).
Since its foundation in 2010 Arifa has received international praise for its unique, orientally flavored music style, which is colored with elements from Balkan music and jazz. Especially for the concert Voices from the East the group collaborates with three special guests from China, Iran and Bulgaria. All of them are female musicians and each of them sings and plays a traditional string instrument.
Arifa is based in Amsterdam, yet its members have Turkish, Greek, Rumanian, German and Dutch Roots...
