## Pain of Örnithology \| June 13 at 1pm The "Pain of Ornithology" is a deeply personal, genre-blending project. Haroon Tahir's music explores complex themes of grief, human connection, and introspection. The instrumentation seamlessly blends elements of modern folk, indie, and contemporary chamber music, with the violin adding a sweeping, emotional texture to his acoustic and vocal arrangements.
