Valarie will be accompanied by world-renowned Afghan musician Qais Essar, master of the rabab, whose music has long inspired love, courage, and connection.

About Qais Essar:
Qais Essar is an acclaimed Afghan-American composer and instrumentalist, blending traditional Afghan and Indian classical music with contemporary genres. His mastery of the rabab brings an ancient and modern musical fusion that deepens the evening’s message of connection and courage.
