This incredible musical trio, Koshka, will be traveling all the way from Scotland to perform Live at Temple Sinai in Marblehead this July! Tickets are only $20 for Adults, $15 for Seniors and Kids are FREE! Food and Drinks are included, and intermission will be help outside on our beautiful veranda. 

Founded by virtuoso Gypsy violinist Oleg Ponomarev, Russian classical violinist Lev Atlas and Scots guitarist extraordinaire Nigel Clark, the trio have been enchanting audiences throughout the UK, Europe and Ireland with their innovative “World Gypsy Music”, a heady cocktail of gypsy tunes from all over the world, spiced with elements of jazz, rock, folk and flamenco.

Koshka’s unique collaboration has been developing since 2001, when the trio first came together in Glasgow. It includes a hefty catalogue of Oleg Ponomarev’s original material, inspired by traditional melodies and arranged in unexpected new ways. Ranging from outrageous quick-tempo gypsy dance tunes, to the most achingly beautiful violin airs this side of the Carpathians, Koshka’s set gives audiences a chance to see and hear Gypsy music played as never before.

Koshka’s plans for the coming year include appearances in a number of international world music festivals in England, Belgium and Sweden and recording a new album. In July 2011 Koshka is landing on the east coast of the United States for their first ever tour of America, culminating in concerts at Champlain Folk Festival in Vermont.
