Honoring tradition, these groups play Italian string music and Greek folk music, bringing two beautiful countries together all in one night!
The Glo Worms perform Italian folk and Ballo Liscio music, as well as original compositions by Robin Rapuzzi, band leader and 1st mandolinist. While waltzes, mazurkas and polkas make up the bulk of their repertoire, you may also hear ragtime, early jazz, and even calypso. The Glo Worms share members with such popular groups as Tuba Skinny and the Frog and Henry String and Brass band. They are a group of tight-knit friends based in the Ninth Ward of New Orleans, LA, and have devoted themselves to resurrecting old world music and composing new pieces of their own.
Phoebe's Greek Band plays traditional Greek music as well as Greek folk music, thus why the title of tonight's presentation is "Old Country Night:" music from the "old country."
