Global Music Nights: Araiz & Ramón Valle Global Music Nights presents a series of double concerts featuring the best of Dutch world music.
Each evening showcases a surprising combination of an emerging talent and an established artist. Enjoy a diverse program and unique sounds!
"1st concert: Araíz
""Araíz"" – a name that signifies roots, heritage, and the blending of diverse musical traditions. Each member of this flamenco band brings a piece of their homeland, enriched with Indian and Greek influences, resulting in a melting pot of cultures and sounds. Araíz immerses its audience in a mystical atmosphere, evoking intense emotions and creating magical moments.
The project is a vision of flamenco artists Claudia Karapanou (dance), Lucas Arango (guitar), and Tarang Poddar (tabla, voice), who strive to reconnect flamenco with the music of India, the origin of the Gitano migration 1,000 years ago. The trio invites special guests to their musical projects to complete the collective 'Araíz.'
