Join us for Sounds of Home, a unique concert event as part of UNSW’s 2025 Diversity Festival, where music, culture, and ritual come together in an intimate and immersive experience.

This special performance features three of Australia’s leading practitioners of traditional instruments – Hamed Sadeghi (Persian tar), Chloe Chung (Chinese dizi flute) and Liz Cheung (Erhu). Through evocative storytelling, improvisation, and the rich traditions of their instruments, they will guide you on a journey into the soundscapes of their cultural heritage.

Alongside the music, you’ll be invited to explore our tea station offering flavours from around the world – from fragrant Japanese Sencha tea to warming Indian masala chai and a cold splash of Mexican Hibiscus Iced tea.

Sip, listen, and reflect as each cup and note invites you to consider: What does the sound of home mean to you? You’ll also receive a beautifully crafted zine of UNSW’s student stories, artworks, and reflections to take home – a memento of the shared experience.

Come for the music, stay for the conversation, and leave with your senses full and your heart a little warmer. As a special gift, all registered audience members will receive a T2 tea to take home.
