WORLD: World Traditions, CLASSICAL: New Age
Details:
"Your music touched me very deeply: I found, more than once, tears on my cheeks, I had gooseflesh creep on my back, I could barely stay in my seat for wanting to dance, and at the same time, I found myself feeling something similar to the feeling I get when I meditate. What an amazing thing you do." Unsolicited audience-member response to a Gypsophilia concert.
Featuring traditional and original music, Gypsophilia''s concerts and recordings weave together traditional Balkan and Middle Eastern styles with Sufi traditions, European chamber music and Gregorian chant, instrumental improvisation and ethnic percussion. Influences include the Klezmer tradition, Qawwali (Pakistani Sufi Music) and Turkish Sufi music.
Gypsophilia comprises Scott Robinson (English concertina), Claudia Harrison Hall (violin), Alfred Goodrich (cello), and Hoagy Wing (percussion). Founded by composer Scott Robinson, they are currently appearing at the Maryland Renaissance Festival. They have also performed at the Knitting Factory (New York City,) the Tin Angel (Philadelphia,) the Central Pennsylvania Arts Festival in State College, LancasterFest, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Longwood Gardens and the Free Library on Logan Square. They have been heard on Gene Shay''s folk music program on WXPN radio, as well as on public radio stations in Harrisburg, State College, Lexington, KY and in Europe.
Here are some unsolicited audience responses to Gypsophilia''s concerts:
"The whole concert felt like a prayer to me."
"What a wonderful embodiment of unified diversity!!!! The Blessed City concert was a delight."
"Just wanted to let you know how very, very, incredibly wonderful your music was! It went straight into my soul, opened me up, and connected me to the endless sea of all other souls. There is really no better way to describe it."
