“…a masterpiece”-Acoustic Music
Guitarist Aram Bajakian and vocalist Julia Ulehla’s Dálava is a homage to traditional Moravian folk music, with fragments of poetry and verse transcribed over 100 years ago by Ulehla’s great-grandfather, a biologist and legendary ethnomusicologist. Dálava is an experiment of how traditional song grows when transplanted to new lands and new times.
This deeply personal project is fresh and bold, and the latest project by the prolific Bajakian who has toured with the likes of Lou Reed, Diana Krall, and John Zorn. Following in her great-grandfather’s footsteps, Julia is also an ethnomusicologist who has collaborated on diverse music and theatre projects.
For their Music on Main concert, Dálava releases their latest CD and collaborates with some of Canada’s top improvisors. This is a night not to be missed.
