BRING US TOGETHER - Polina Shepherd\/\/Eastern European Music and Feast
Advertisement
Join us on October 11th for the second of our BRING US TOGETHER Programme with Eastern European Folk Singer and Composer Polina Shepherd.
An Evening of Song and Feasting from 7pm
(Tickets are Pay What you Feel, so please pay what suits your budget from £0 upwards. )
Polina Shepherd is a composer, performer, educator and cultural activist originally from Siberia, now living in Brighton UK. She grew up with singing at family gatherings where she accompanied her grandfather, a WWII veteran and her whole Cossack / Jewish family from the age of 7. Since moving to the UK in 2003 has been performing, teaching, composing and touring with various projects internationally.
Her singing, though based on traditional forms, cuts a sound deeply rooted in east European Jewish and Russian folk. Growing up in Tatarstan also placed her close to Islamic ornamentation and timbre, which can be heard in her unique vocal style.
Polina's composition is focused on East European styles with an influence of classical music and folk elements.
"Polina's composition is focused on East European styles with an influence of classical music and folk elements."
Cleveland Classical
"Bouncy village songs, light classical numbers and some fiery vocals make for an experience that is both worldly and rooted in Jewish tradition."
Songlines
"Polina’s sweet, vigorous performance style perfectly reflects the dynamics and spirit of her mission—to inspire people to sing with others from the heart, to restore the culture they share across the world. "
