This program has everything from Bizet’s Carmen to japanese dances to Lebanese folk music, with the addition of flamenco and belly dance. It contrasts Western orientalist classical music with authentic “Eastern” music from what was once considered “The Orient”—everywhere from Spain to Africa to East Asia.

Musica Mixta founder and mezzo-soprano Jessica Blau will be joined by pianist Claire Forstman (Portland Opera), violinist Daniel Moltke (National Arab Orchestra), and dancer Elena Villa (The Bedouin Spice Orchestra).

Enjoy tapas & vino at Bar Botellón while you watch!
