DanzaNova performs at WAC and brings the excitement and joy of klezmer music.

Watchung, NJ (October 15)  –   On Saturday, October 20 beginning at  8 p.m., Watchung Arts Center an exciting genre of music that will bring joy to all.  A great evening for families to enjoy this enchanting music in the Upper Gallery of the Center.  Open to all tickets may be purchased at http://danzanova102012.eventbrite.com/.

DanzaNova is a virtuoso world/folk/klezmer quintet formed by composer/pianist/accordionist Dr. Ronn Yedidia in 2009. The other 4 members of DanzaNova include violinist Dmitriy Fisch, guitarist Giacomo La Vita, bassist Eddy Khaimovich and percussionist Yuval Edoot. The ensemble explores and performs ethnic dance music originating mainly from the Middle East, Eastern & Central Europe and Latin America. In addition, Ronn Yedidia has composed a series of his own dance tunes entitled KlezDances especially for DanzaNova. The quintet’s emphasis is on stylistic versatility and chamber unity, and the players display their many creative abilities in segments of original free improvisation – blending ethnic and contemporary elements, and executing them with idiosyncratic virtuosity.

The Epoch Times has reviewed DanzaNova’s performance at New York’s Merkin Concert Hall (April, 2010) – citing that ” it was pure ethnic music which left the audience ecstatic – with boundless pleasure ! “

A promotion documentary about DanzaNova is now featured on Youtube at:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g__V4lIp7Aw&feature=youtu.be

Tickets are $16 in advance through Eventbrite or at the door for $20 for non-members, $18 for WAC members, $10 for students. You may purchase tickets securely through Eventbrite.
