NY Gypsy Fest presents Rhythm of Rajasthan
Saturday September 26, 2009 at 8:00pm
Symphony Space
West 96th street Broadway
New York, New York Get Directions
Part of the 5th anniversary of the NY Gypsy Festival (www.nygypsyfest.com)

From the windswept Great Thar Desert in Rajasthan (the land of kings) in northwestern India comes Rhythm of Rajasthan with its mesmerizing music and dance. The musicians, from the Langa and Manghaniyar hereditary groups of itinerant entertainers, perform a program of vibrant and joyous folk music, encompassing driving percussion, ecstatic Sufi songs, and hypnotic sarangi (bowed lute) and algoza (double flute). They are joined by the famed Sua Devi, a dancer in the film Latcho Drom, who performs the sensuous Kalbeliya Sapera snake-charming dance and the spectacular Bhavai folk dance.
