Third Stream: Ukranian Folk Music meets Jazz
The brilliant Argentinian pianist, Leandro Lopez Varady, has a deep love of both jazz and classical music, and has worked with Orbert Davis’ Chicago Jazz Philharmonic to develop new “Third Stream” music (which combines elements of both disciplines). When he was recently introduced to a collection of Ukrainian folk songs, the melodies spoke to him in a profound way, and he has infused them with jazz and Latin harmonies and rhythms. The inspiring result is true 21st Century World Music, both unique and beautiful. This work was premiered in 2019 at the Ukrainian Institute of Modern Art (UIMA).
