Baha’i Blog Studio Sessions is an initiative where we invite Baha’is and their friends from around the world to come into a studio and share the Baha’i Writings put to music.

In this Baha’i Blog Studio Session, we’re in Edinburgh, in the United Kingdom with the Newington Singing Group who sing “Brilliant Star” based on the Writings of Abdu’l-Baha.

This song was filmed and recorded in Edinburgh, in the United Kingdom in April 2023.
