Klezmorimalta Nights
Description:
Taking place on 29 and 30 August at Pjazza Teatru Rjal, Klezmorimalta Nights will be a celebration of Klezmer music and will feature the highly-acclaimed Amsterdam and Yxalag Klezmer Bands along with poetic folk singer-songwriter Démira.
The event is being organised by the Klezmorimalta Foundation, which is a not-for-profit organisation that aims to showcase music as a performance art. It has been in the works for over a year, and will bring to the forefront a genre of music traditionally associated with Jewish weddings, but which has grown to become an international hybrid of genres with influences of gypsy and Balkan music.
It is the sheer range of Klezmori artists that will be the highlight of the Klezmorimalta Nights. Both the Amsterdam Klezmer Band and the Yxalag Klezmer Band are renowned for capturing different emotional expressions of this music genre and will showcase the traditional standards along with more modern interpretations of this music. Together, they will pave the way for the headliner of the nights, the young, award-winning Démira whose latest EP Indigo was launched earlier this year.
Klezmorimalta Nights will take place at Pjazza Teatru Rjal, a venue that incorporates tradition and modernity – a symbol of what Klezmer music has become throughout the years. It will take place on 29 and 30 August and tickets can be purchased from www.ticketline.com.mt.
