Music: Global

Out of Doors presents International Body Music Festival

Lincoln Center says:

Barbatuques (New York Debut) SLAMMIN All-Body Band Celina Kalluk and Lucie Idlout Derique McGee Music you can see, dance you can hear. Likely the first music—people the world over stomp, clap, sing, snap, and chant. Evocative and visceral, the International Body Music Festival concert explores the sonic possibilities of the human instrument with an amazing roster of traditional and contemporary artists from the Americas: Brazil’s 12-member “circle orchestra” Barbatuques in its New York debut; the Bay Area’s ferocious SLAMMIN All-Body Band, known for infectious harmonies and lightning-fast improvisations; Inuit throat singers Celina Kalluk and Lucie Idlout from Nunavut, Canada; and African American hambone artist Derique McGee.

 

"Beatboxers from Oakland meet throat-singers from Nunavut. Throw in some hambone with thigh slaps and you get a global shindig that transcends a mere trading of rhythms. The International Body Music Festival is a cross-cultural conversation via the world's oldest instrument. And in the words of festival director Keith Terry, "It's a reminder of our humanity on a very basic level." - Rozalia Jovanovic
