Mayfly with Nikola Ivanov
Mayfly is a duet of sweet harmony vocals and folk instrumentals influenced by southern appalachian old-time, and new england blues, ballads and soul music.www.myspace.com/mayflygirls
Nikola is from the Black Sea town of Varna
in Bulgaria. He left it when he was 18 to attend university in the United
States. However, the music of that region never left him. "I
am very fortunate to have met people so interested in Balkan and Bulgarian
music..." he says " as their interest has inspired me to look at its
universal meaning. The part that touches you regardless of what language
you speak". ---------------------------------------------- Sunday, Oct 26th - Workshop with Nikola - 1-3 p.m. $35 In this workshop we
will learn about a specific variation of the 9/8 measure.It will be a
good way to practice the trills and measure hesitations specific to the Varna
region because the melody of this tune is simple and its phrases
seem to feed on each other.This makes it easy to improvise on once
the spirit of the tune is understood. Depending on your reading/hearing
abilities, it is recommended that you take a look at the chart in advance so
that we can focus on the aesthetics.
This workshop is open to anyone with an interest in Balkan music with an emphasis on Eastern Bulgarian traditional dance music. Although Nikki is an accordion player, all are welcome. Preregistration is recommended at www.summit-school.org
I hope to see you at something soon.
