Saturday 10 July

Gypsy World Music Concert

International artists will play a varied selection of Gypsy music from around the world. These include:

La Roma

La Roma, a Polish Roma group of dancers and musicians now living in Basildon, are performing at the Gypsy Arts Festival for the first time. Complimented by a feast of traditional Roma costumes, La Roma add colour and flavour wherever they go.

Kerieva

Singer, instrumentalist and multi-media performer, known for her passion, intensity and dynamism. Her split Manouche (Gypsy) and Irish lineages have led her to a life anything but sedentary, having lived and performed all over the world, giving both a rawness and beauty to her music. www.myspace.com/kerieva

Cristofe Sors

Flamenca Rhumba guitarist and singer, Cristofe Sors comes from Arles in the South of France where he grew playing music with the Gypsy Kings. Naturally his music is heavily influenced by them, and another heavy weight act from this region, Tekameli. In May 2010, Cristofe will release his first album entitled “My Tradition”, an album full of love and energy with diverse influences, recorded and self-produced in the UK.www.myspace.com/cristofe.sors

Mazaika

Russian accordionist and singer Igor Outkine and violinist Sarah Harrison. Their performance will be taken from their extensive repertoire consisting of Russian folk and Gypsy music. Mazaika have given concerts and cabaret performances at Concert Halls and Music Festivals throughout Britain, Europe and the U.S.A. From sellout performances at the Purcell Room on London's South Bank, to notable concert venues including The QEH, St John’s Smith Square, Holders Festival in Barbados, Cambridge Summer Music Festival, Le Quecumbar, London’s premier Gypsy jazz venue and the Hollywell Room in Oxford. Festivals include Rhythms of The World in Hitching, Pittenweem Arts Festival and Belladrum Festival (Scotland), Wild Flower Festival (USA), and at the Edinburgh Fringe. We are very pleased to have them at our Gypsy Arts Festival. www.mazaika-music.com
