INSTITUT 002 residency: KRYVA KOSA FOLK BAND

Traditional balkan, baltic, and slavic village folk music for dance in an open acoustic "rehearsal" format; easy to learn songs for curious musicians; easy to absorb listening for thirsty conversationalists.

This is the first set in VOLUME 2 of the INSTITUT experiment. Every week, a different hypothesis. Underground at 620 Spadina Ave - around the back, through the lot to the steel doors, down the stairs, past the mechanical room, through the swinging wood laminate door...

Stick around, cause it's gonna get jazzy (but RSVP even though it's PWYC so we know who to expect).

5:00 PM | RESIDENCY | KRYVA KOSA

7:00 PM | CONCERT | TYMISH KOZNARSKY TRIO (CA) + CARLO MUSCAT (UA)

11:00 PM | VINTAGE VINYL | MIRA MELA

KRYVA KOSA is a collective of musicians & artists who are here to share the folk music

traditions from their diverse backgrounds. They play live music, teach folk dances at upbeat public socials, and create interactive spaces for musical exchange and learning.

"Kryva Kosa" means "crooked scythe" in Ukrainian. Join them to experience timeless village folk melodies from Ukraine and neighbouring Slavic, Baltic, Balkan & Finno-Ugric cultures of Europe.

They have performed and taught at the Bloor West Village Ukrainian Festival, Drom Taberna, Kosa Folk Arts Melanka and recently finished a four month residency at Hart House UofT.
