Opening concert
SkaZka Orchestra
Berlin/Germany
The SkaZka Orchestra musicians (skazka is Russian for fairy tale) come from assorted countries and have Iranian, Jewish, Russian and German roots; so they’re musically equally at home in pop, classical and jazz music. Wild klezmer, punk, electronic grooves and Balkan melodies merge to form a multicultural delight, not to mention a fast tempo for those in the mood to dance. The audience soon works up a sweat that can be cooled off with vodka-laced stories.
