How PeaceBuskers Works: From Vision to Street Performance
The Vision
PeaceBuskers is a mobile artistic movement designed to activate public space with music, emotion, and unity. This project is more than a concert—it's a cultural statement. It's mobile, multilingual, modular, and magnetic. It transforms performance into protest, music into memory, and streets into sanctuaries of peace.
The Journey
The project unfolds over three weeks, traveling from Paris to Prague in a branded caravan that serves as both stage and symbol. Each stop is carefully chosen to resonate with the spirit of peace and public gathering.
The journey begins in Paris, a symbol of freedom and cultural resilience, and moves through Brussels, Cologne, Berlin, and Vienna—each city bringing its own historical and emotional context to the tour—until reaching its final performance at the Lennon Wall in Prague.
The Performances
At each destination, Kamran Rasoolzadeh, an award-winning artist known for his poetic voice and multicultural roots, will perform a curated selection of songs centered on peace, memory, and collective healing. These performances will take place in iconic public locations: plazas, riversides, symbolic landmarks—turning everyday space into a stage for hope.
In every city, Kamran will collaborate with local musicians, creating spontaneous, location-based musical fusions. These artists will be contacted in advance or selected via short local calls, adding local color and authenticity to each performance.
The Technology
The caravan will be equipped with an LED screen and sound system, displaying pre-edited visuals, subtitles of song lyrics, and multilingual messages of peace. Each moment is documented: photos, short videos, and interviews will be shared in real-time on social media, allowing the audience worldwide to join the movement virtually.
The Impact
Through simplicity, mobility, and sincerity, PeaceBuskers offers a powerful, poetic alternative to division and despair.
From Paris to Prague: A Harmonious Route for Peace
We believe that music transcends borders. PeaceBuskers is not just a concert tour—it's a journey of hope, healing, and humanity.
From the symbol of liberty in Paris to the Lennon Wall in Prague, this project connects cities, people, and voices in a shared desire for peace through song.
This carefully curated route spans 1,800 kilometers across six European capitals, each chosen for its unique historical significance and cultural resonance with the peace movement. Our journey begins in Paris, the city of lights and liberty, where revolutionary ideals first sparked dreams of universal brotherhood. From there, we travel through Brussels, the heart of European unity, where diverse nations gather to build bridges instead of walls.
The route continues through Cologne, a city that rose from the ashes of war to become a beacon of reconciliation, then to Berlin, where the fall of the wall symbolized the triumph of unity over division. Vienna, the city of music and diplomacy, serves as our penultimate stop before reaching Prague, where the Velvet Revolution proved that peaceful change is possible when people unite their voices.
Each city represents a chapter in Europe's story of transformation—from conflict to cooperation, from division to unity. Through music, we'll weave these stories together, creating a tapestry of hope that spans cultures, languages, and generations. This is more than a tour; it's a pilgrimage for peace, where every street corner becomes a stage for change and every song becomes a prayer for a better world.
