Notes & Reviews:

This is a program that celebrates music inspired by the rich cultures of India, Argentina, Greece and Brazil. From the meditative ragas of Ravi Shankar and the jubilant melodies of Jose Lezcano to the sensual melodies of Jose Luis Merlin, this program evokes the wide range of emotions intrinsically connected with traditional folk music. Greek guitarist, Antigoni Goni enjoys a truly international career and was recently praised by the NY Times who described her as "An eloquent player with a graceful touch and a rich sound" Laura Gilbert, the distinguished young American flutist, has performed throughout North and South America, Europe, Japan and Korea. The NY Times also praised her abilities with "Her tone is deep, smoothly rounded and alluring, and her manipulation of dynamics and timbre imposed an unusually compelling dramatic shape"
