The Green Note in Camden is a lovely, intimate venue mainly hosting world and folk music. Tellin’ Tales<\/strong> <\/em>is a new night curated by Elizabeth Nott <\/a>at The Green Note <\/a>which combines music with stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I will be performing with Akdeniz Trio, three talented female musicians: Kalia Baklitzanaki<\/a> playing Kaval, Arabi Nay and voice; Shirley Smart<\/a> playing Cello, and Elizabeth Nott playing Middle Eastern percussion. Akdeniz Trio play music from all corners of the Mediterranean, from Andalucia to Lebanon, Morocco to Turkey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As this is a concert with four female performers, I want to celebrate the storytelling traditions of the Middle East,  Arabia, and Mediterranean that are filled with the most unexpected and feisty female protagonists – from old crones to  innocent maidens. These are women who understand the power of stories, are not afraid of desire, and will sometimes pursue it at their own peril!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Come and delight in stories drawn from The Arabian Nights and beyond, stories of elaborate tricks and wild romances, wit and wisdom, lust and love, woven through with luscious music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
