Songs of the World

Songs of the World forms the foundation of Farya Faraji’s work. He is best known for his collaborations with traditional musicians from across the globe, through which folk and traditional songs are performed with deep respect for their authentic cultural context and living traditions.

Collaborators have included July Vitraniuk, Vigneshwari V.S, Ido Romano, Paul Johnson, Anna Vasylchenko, Dimitrios Dallas, Michael Burnyeat, Marina Koleva, Ali Farbodnia, and many others, each bringing deep musical expertise rooted in the regions and traditions they represent.

Most foundational to the project is the desire to bring people of different cultures together. By performing songs of diverse cultures alongside its practitioners, Faraji wishes to show the universality of music, and how it connects us all.
