Salam Concert Series Fundraisers - Violin & Dialogue

Violinist & Composer: Ashraf Kateb The evening opens with a live violin performance by Ashraf Kateb, featuring a piece he composed in memory of the late Palestinian poet and former Minister of Culture, Mahmoud Darwish and other pieces by diaspora composers from the Levant Region. A conversation between Tayeb Al-Hafez and Ashraf Kateb will follow, reflecting on the creation of Intima, a multimedia dance performance inspired by Syria's cultural legacy and the ancient epic of Gilgamesh. The dialogue will explore the project's origins, interdisciplinary collaboration, and its role in cultural healing and storytelling. The Salam Concert Series supports the work of the Global Health Equity Foundation (GHEF) to advance trauma literacy, cultural dialogue, and mental health education.

This work will be supported through our broader Possessions Fundraising Campaign, which aims to raise CHF 10,000 for program activation, public education, and new partnerships in Switzerland.
