Rio Sonorousness

Rare is the world music that even considers the Rio Grande, but on Friday, May 24 from 7:30pm to 9:30pm, Sangeet Millennium Ensemble and Amie Maciszewski blend the sounds of the Ganges River with the sounds of the Rio Grande in Songs of Benares: From the River Ganga to the Rio Grande at Tortuga Gallery. Tabla, sitar, traditional singing and jazz saxophone are sure to make this a night of memorable music. Tickets range from $15 to $100.
