About this Event
WORLD MUSIC SERIES • DOORS @ 1:00 • SHOW@2:00
Oktopus stands as a major voice in Canada’s world-music scene, with nearly 350 performances at home and abroad. Dedicated to klezmer music, the octet sets itself apart with a distinctive approach blending classical, Québécois, and jazz influences. Oktopus's concerts are passionate and virtuosic, peppered with humor and storytelling. Melancholy airs— echoes of centuries of exile—give way to boundless celebration.
Brahms, Balkans & Bagels is a vibrant program that delves into how folk music inspired some of the greatest classical composers. Classical and folk traditions intertwine through moving, virtuosic arrangements, with klezmer serving as a unifying thread—punctuated by its dances, inflections, and ornaments.
