Thu Oct 18 03:23:18 UTC 2012

Dear Music Enthusiasts,

Please alert your friends, mark your calendars... the Sakhioba Ensemble
will be performing in Washington DC, Philadelphia, New York, Boston,
Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Vermont in the next three weeks!

The ensemble is at the forefront of the revival of traditional Georgian
vocal polyphony, and adds traditional instruments and dances to their
thrilling performances. This is a show not to be missed! I will be
introducing and managing the tour, so hope to see you, or one of your East
Coast representatives, at one of the performances or workshops in your area.

Sincerely,
John A. Graham
Tour Coordinator www.georgianchant.org/
Princeton Graduate Fellow

Washington DC, Philadelphia, New York, Vermont, Boston *To say that
Sakhioba’s recent UK tour created a stir would be a gross understatement.
Audiences across the country were thrilled by the ensemble’s dazzling
display of ringing harmonies, virtuosic yodelling, and nifty footwork,
interspersed with soulful laments and love songs that seemed momentarily to
stop the universe in its tracks.*
- Caroline Bithell, University of Manchester

Dedicated to reconstructing authentic performances of traditional vocal
polyphony, dance, and instrumentals from Caucasus Georgia, the Sakhioba
Ensemble, which means "sweet singing", debuts their abundant talent in a
sweeping tour of the US Northeast. Stay tuned for public workshops and
masterclasses given by director Malkhaz Erkvanidze, one of the foremost
authorities on the history, practice, and revival of Georgian Orthodox
polyphonic chant.
