San Francisco Bay Times, Music Beyond Boundaries (column by DJ Pusspuss) >>
Les Yeux Noirs lands Jan. 28 at Stanford's Memorial Auditorium and Jan. 29 at San Rafael's Osher Marin Community Center. Blending funky gypsy undertones with old-school Eastern European folk, jazz and classical influences Les Yeux Noirs delivers an eclectic and electric set blazing a trail for new followers to spark onto the world music scene. Playing a mixture of traditional and modern instruments they pull old-school tunes into a modern context that's brilliant and refreshing finding the emotional touchstones that make music count. They deliver it vividly while exploring the incredible mix of Gypsy and Yiddish cultures which each faced near-extinction during the Inquisitions and again from the Nazis. My picks: Zamhora Pe Opt, Yankele, Doïna Si Joc De Marian, Le Voyage, Viens, Vos Iz Gevein and Hora De Mîna. 01/19/06 >> go there
