Live from Barbès: Sanda Weigl + Alexandros Papadakis + TriBeCaStan + Raya Brass band

Hear this show now: Pop-up listen Pop-up player! | Add or read comments


Another action-packed evening of wall-to-wall live music from Barbès, the intimate music-lover's haven at 376 9th St (corner of 6th Ave) in Park Slope, Brooklyn.

Featuring the splendid chanteuse (and Barbès Records recording artist) Sanda Weigl accompanied by keyboardist extraordinaire Shoko Nagai; Alexandros Papadakis, a master of the spellbinding lyra (fiddle) and other traditional instruments from Crete; sonic globetrotters TriBeCaStan and their array of exotic instruments from everywhere; and the incomparable Balkan brass bashers Raya Brass Band.

As usual the tireless Irene Trudel will be both technical guru and co-host with Rob, ably assisted by Bil Bowen, inventor of the pandeiro microphone.

Admission is free during the broadcast (although performers may pass the hat for voluntary donations).

And - bonus - we'll be doling out free FMU swag!
