TZIGANE

The curious roadmaps of influence are traced in a program that connects lesser known Roma musical traditions to popular styles from across Europe. Characteristics of Romani music - rich ornamentation, unorthodox rhythms and dizzying speed - are on display in virtuosic performances of works by Brahms, Sarasate, and Ravel. 

The evening's atmosphere will shift from concert hall to cafe with a performance by Van Django, playing in the hot jazz style made famous by Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli. Members of the Esmeralda Enrique Spanish Dance Company - amongst the best in their craft - will put on a stunning display of flamenco guitar and dance.
