The Confederation House presents the 13th International Oud Festival, which will take place in Jerusalem from November 8-17, 2012.
Ross Daly and the Labyrinth Ensemble: Music and Poetry from Crete
Saturday, 17 November 2012 21:00
Composer and Irish-Greek lyra player Ross Daly is one of the regular and beloved guests of the Jerusalem International Oud Festival. Together with the Labyrinth Ensemble, vocalist Giorgos Xilouris and percussionist Zohar Fresco, in this performance he presents the unique dance and rizitika songs of the island of Crete. The performance centers around a folk story describing the ritual encounter of young lyra players taught by spirits who besiege them at night and seek to devour them-or at least, play for them until daybreak.
