The 12th Cyprus Rialto World Music Festival hosts the group Vassiliki Anastasiou - The Amalgamation Project, in a concert featuring their first homonym album.

 

A trip that balances between the refreshing Mediterranean sound, the echoes of the Balkan mountains and the rich polyphonic sounds. They present adapted traditional songs, a amalgam of West and East, as well as their own compositions, with incipient little narrative stories / poems. The program also includes polyphonic songs without music accompaniment.

 

The Amalgamation Project band has been featured at the Rialto Ethnic Festival, Axiothea Festival, Aglantzia Festival, Paradise Jazz Festival and Windcraft Festival, at the first Cyprus Rialto Jazz and World Music Showcase and at the TRAKASOL cultural center.
