SUMMARY:KHC Summer Kicks- Qairo
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday Night from 7-9\, Free outdoor concert at Keith King Park: Golden BC. \nQairo (pronounced Cairo) is a passionate and innovative septet whose pan-Mediterranean sound combines the fire of flamenco with a heady blend of Turkish micro-tonality\, highly charged Balkan rhythms\, and spicy Middle Eastern melodies. Singer Alejandro Mendia and dancers Lia Grainger and Deborah “La Caramelita” were part of a popular flamenco ensemble for years before merging with flamenco guitarist Manuel Vazquez and clarinetist and saxophonist Dorian Zavatta. Their goal was to create a radical musical hybrid\, and with the addition of percussionist Alex Carrasco and drummer Gaetan Diaz\, Cairo hit paydirt. Onstage they unleash a firestorm of music and dance that is rooted in centuries-old folk traditions yet taps into a modern\, freewheeling eclecticism that crackles with chemistry. Find out why CBC Radio said\, “Qairo’s music has no boundaries.”
