The pair embark on a musical pilgrimage performing in intimate and awe-inspiring locations and exploring the cultural heritage of their native land to shed light on some of the country's most eminent poets, both past and present. Each chosen location, from windswept cliffs to serene valleys, holds a deep resonance with the poets who once roamed these lands, drawing inspiration from the very same vistas that now set the stage for this musical homage.
