An evening with Ori Shalva, Canada's foremost Georgian polyphonic vocal ensemble, led by virtuoso traditional singer and multi-instrumentalist Shalva Makharashvili. Ori Shalva performs one of the world's oldest and most complex vocal traditions.
Step into a sound world rarely heard in North America: the spellbinding, millennia-old vocal polyphony of Sakartvelo (aka Georgia), brought vividly to life by Ori Shalva, a Toronto-based family ensemble led by Georgian-born virtuoso singer/multi-instrumentalist, Shalva Makharashvili. Praised for their "amazing harmonies" by CBC’s Eroll Nazareth, they transport audiences to the cradle of wine, where breathtaking harmonies and spirited rhythms are inseparable from legendary Georgian hospitality and toasting. Be ready, maybe glass in hand, to be swept away into a sonic journey of Sakartvelo.
