collectif9 + Ronny Desinor
A dazzling program for string quintet and drums that blurs the lines between contemporary music, folk cultures and urban music.
collectif9 joins forces with internationally renowned drummer Ronny Desinor for a show that fuses soul, jazz, and folk music, creating an atmosphere that is both groovy and punchy, sometimes dissonant and exploratory. A program that resonates with diverse audiences, featuring pieces by Gabriella Smith, Giovanni Sollima, Curtis Stewart, Vijay Iyer, John Zorn, and Jessie Montgomery.
