Gaia Roots presents a unique live, educational and inspirational performance that blends traditional, folkloric drumming and singing with original creations and arrangements. This interactive concert features soaring vocal harmonies in multiple languages, intricate percussion and drumming rhythms accompanied by traditional dance movements. Gaia Roots has been traveling, studying, and performing together for over 17 years. In their travels to the Caribbean, West Africa and other parts of the world, they have collected a sizable repertoire of songs, dances, stories, traditional clothing and instruments. Come join in the fun! This event will be held outside in the Roche Reading Park next to the Library; please bring a blanket. Rain moves the event indoors.
Support for this program comes from a grant from the Lenox Cultural Council, a local agency which is supported by the Mass Cultural Council, a state agency.
