Ihtimanska, Ottawa, ON, 14 Dec 2014

Ihtimanska Sunday, December 14, 8:00pm BSOMA - Bluesfest School of Music and Art 450 Churchill Ave, Ottawa, Ontario $10 Ihtimanska is a sweet dialogue between the saxophone and accordion sharing melodies from Bulgaria and Turkey. The gentle complicity is an unusual blending of voices drawing on their musical experiences through the teaching and encounters of inspiring musicians from New York, Istanbul and beyond. The duo combination allows music to flow naturally, and allows for a sensitive personal interpretation with a touch of creativity on beautiful traditional pieces that evoke joy, sadness, love and gratitude to life. Ariane Morin: saxophone Yoni Kaston: accordion, piano Facebook: www.facebook.com/events/1652493881644142/
