FLAGSTAFF — Barrio Manouche, whose international roots shine brightly in their music with members from Spain, Quebec, France, Brazil and California, will perform on Saturday, Aug. 3 at The Arboretum, 4001 South Woody Mountain Road, Flagstaff.
As the final performance of The Arboretum’s Summer Concert Series, the group will includes French Flamenco dancer Fanny Ara, African sacred dance Brazilian dancer Emaye Ama Mizani, as well as Colombian singer Iván Rondón.
“WE PLAY MUSIC INSPIRED BY THE PLACES WE COME FROM AND THE PLACES WE HAVE LIVED, THOSE THAT HAVE COME BEFORE US, AND THE NOMADIC SPIRIT. WE BELIEVE THAT MUSIC IS A PRIMARY FORM OF EXPRESSION AND WE USE IT TO DESCRIBE THE WORLD AS WE SEE IT.”
“TOCAMOS LA MÚSICA INSPIRADA POR LOS BARRIOS EN DONDE NACIMOS Y EN LOS QUE HEMOS VIVIDO DESPUÉS, AQUELLOS QUE NOS PRECEDEN, BASADA EN EL ESPÍRITU NÓMADA. CREEMOS QUE LA MÚSICA ES UNA FORMA EXPRESIÓN Y LA UTILIZAMOS PARA CONTAR COMO VEMOS EL MUNDO.”
Tickets are $18 for members, $12 for the general public.
Doors open at 4:45 p.m., with the concert beginning at 5:30 p.m.
