Full program notes

This musical duo is both traditional and experimental, focusing on the connection to nature that exists in Eastern European folk music and Hindustani Classical music. The repertoire will consist of original pieces as well as explanations and performances from each of. the separate traditions.


Historical context

Folk Rebels came about from two musicians who feel deeply connected to their music yet on the outside of their traditions. So this music is an ode to what we love about the traditions as well as a practice of expressing ourselves freely.
