Talavya at Hillside Folk Festival - Guelph, ON / Summer Heat Tour July 27, 2012

Cutting across Canada on their Summer Heat Tour 2012, Talavya heads to Ontario for the Hillside Folk Festival in Guelph. Hillside is renowned for its artistic lineup, a stunning blend of up-and-coming Canadian performers, world artists, and local talent. The program is always richly diverse and highly entertaining.

ABOUT TALAVYA:
Globe-trotting percussion ensemble Talavya brings the Indian hand-drums tabla to the center stage, distilling its age-old spirit and practice into a high-energy, highly accessible celebration of rhythm. Composed by Pandit Divyang Vakil, the ensemble plays complex rhythmic structures with split-second perfection, gliding between meditative trance and explosive rock drum power.

"We hosted Talavya as part of the Chico World Music Festival and they were a surprise hit for many folks. Fabulous technical expertise, excellent showmanship, and an engaging personality brought scores of new fans to tabla music." - Dan DeWayne, Director, Chico Performances.
Set times TBA.
