Turkwaz & Nizo Alimov

Presented by Turkwaz at Tranzac Club

Songs to stir your heart - Tunes to move your feet.
NIZO ALIMOV performed and toured for years with Koçani Orkestar - the internationally acclaimed Macedonian Roma Brass band. He's both an accomplished multi-instrumentalist and an enthusiastic and generous teacher of the traditions he was raised in.
For the first set of the evening, TURKWAZ (Jayne Brown, Sophia Grigoriadis, Maryem Tollar and Brenna MacCrimmon) are teaming up with Nizo to explore new repertoire and give it the Turkwaz twist.
The second set will feature Macedonian wedding dance tunes played by Nizo with backup from his son Nazir Alimov on saxophone, Matt Moran (Slavic Soul Party - Brooklyn) on tapan and Demetri Petsalakis (Kune, Moneka Arab Jazz) on rhythm guitar.
As a special added bonus, BERGEN ALIMOVA will be presenting Macdonian Roma style wedding dances during an afternoon workshop from 2-4 pm before the show and will lead dances during the dance party at the end of the evening.
