Light of the East Ensemble w Gary Santucci: June 23 CANCELLED
Light of the East Ensemble in Concert with Gary Santucci: DUE TO UNEXPECTED CIRCUMSTANCES, CANCELLED! Saturday, June 23 at 8:00. Tickets: $15 / $10 students/all artists. Based in London, Ontario, this exhilarating group performs music of the Near East and Middle East. With more than a bit of Flamenco thrown in this time! Their repertoire includes traditional, folk, classical Arabic, Greek Rembetika, and modern urban world music of the 20th century. The rhythms and melodies are instantly captivating and listeners of all types are quickly drawn into the intensity of the music. For people of Near East and Middle East descent, the music becomes a vehicle for a nostalgic journey back to their home country as they experience melodies and rhythms they may not have heard in a live performance for many years. Every show finds such audience members expressing their delight in hearing the ensemble play popular pieces from their homeland. www.lightofeastensemble.com
