The combination of frame drums and voice has a magic all of its own.
Six international musicians take to the E-Werk stage and fill the evening's theme with their voices and musical stories:
Kasia Kadłubowska from Poland with classical percussion training and a great love of frame drum music. Sara Fotros, Iranian musician from London, with powerful percussion on the Persian daf. Emanuela Lodato, Sicilian musician in Belgium with a rousing stage presence. Gesine Bänfer from Freiburg, at home in early music with "wind and strings". Isabel Martín from Spain traces the roots of Mediterranean musical cultures with her singing and the Iberian frame drum Pandero Cuadrado. Negar Bouban, Persian singer and oud virtuoso, whose songs bear witness to an ancient history.
A concert evening that will tell of a personal view of the frame drum and weave threads. Six musicians from different musical cultures will each bring something special from their own music, search for and find points of contact and celebrate "Drums and Voices" with us.
