Kommuna Lux: A Benefit For Ukraine
Come fall in love with Odesa, Ukraine, the Pearl of the Black Sea! Kommuna Lux brings you the heritage music of their beloved hometown. Klezmer, Balkan, and Urban Chanson, with a dash of Ukrainian Folk and powered by rocket fuel, Kommuna Lux impacts the crowd with a nostalgic, high-energy Big Band sound from the bygone days of speakeasies and rum runners.
When Volodymyr Gitin raises that clarinet to his lips, he becomes the only man in the room--you can't help but utterly fall into his virtuoso arms. Heavyweight Champion Oleg Vasianovich holds his accordion like it's light as a feather, while he develops the foundation of each melody. Layers of complexity are added by the bold, bright trumpet of Sergei Zhuravel and the sassy, playful trombone of Yaroslav Besh. You never know when Sergei Poltorak will pause on the percussion to punk the rest of the band with a sly prank. At center stage is sultry powerhouse Bagrat Tsurkan, whose hot buttered voice and nonstop energy compel everyone to the dance floor.
