BALTIC NIGHT Saturday 13 October from 20.00, Melusina
This event to celebrate the participation of the three Baltic States in the festival consists of three main courses: a warm-up comedy That's It! (Estonia) with a special guest (20.00), a very special concert of the Lithuanian electronic band Golden Parazyth (22.00), and a dance party with music served by Latvian DJ Heincha & friends. In addition, Baltic surprises await you at the bar! See more info in the presentation. Golden Parazyth is one of the most successful Lithuanian electronic music acts, known for its powerful and at the same time lyrical live performances and uplifting male vocals singing in English. Their captivating and original sound, a mix of stomping electro rhythms with broken beats and melodic lines, will surely make you move. The band was formed in 2005, has released three albums so far and will perform for the first time in Luxembourg. The Baltic Night is supported by the Honorary Consuls of Estonia (Lex Thielen), Latvia (Henri Diederich) and Lithuania (Robert Wagener) in Luxembourg. |

CINECONCERT "SZAZA plays POLANSKI" Wednesday 17 October at 20.45, Cinémathèque
The Polish duo "SzaZa" integrates various instruments - violon, percussions, clarinet, mandoline, mbira etc. - to provide live soundtrack to the almost complete list of short films made by Roman Polanski before he left his country. These shorts without dialogue, sometimes funny, sometimes scary, but always a bit strange, lend themselves particularly well to musical adaptation and the duo manages to fit with their mood wonderfully. They partly draw inspiration from the original compositions of the great Polish jazz pioneer Krzysztof Komeda (to whom CinEast paid homage in 2011), by reinterpreting them in a remarkably innovative way. Pawe³ Szamburski and Patryk Zakrocki, the musicians in SzaZa duo, are two multi-instrumentalists, improvisers and promoters of culture who have been active on the Warsaw improvised music and independent art scene since 1999. They create music for theatre, film, silent movies and contemporary dance. web Films on the programme are here.

BALKAN NIGHT Thursday 18 October from 20.00, Melusina The first ever participation of the three ex-Yugoslavian countries in the festival just has to be celebrated... the Balkan way! And what's on the Melusina menu for the Balkan night? The projection of short films (20.00), a DJ party by the Balkan fusion expert DJ Gaetano Fabri (21.30), Balkan surprises at the bar and a great atmosphere guaranteed! See more info in the presentation. DJ Gaetano Fabri from Brussels has been popularising gypsy music through the club scenes all around Europe for more than a decade, blending clubbing culture with traditional music. After many years of spinning on the techno house circuit of Belgium and France, Gaetano started his love affair with world music in 2000 and began to fuse musical elements from gypsy culture and Balkan brass bands with the hottest dancefloor trends. Fabri's desire is to bring to life nights entirely dedicated to the culture of the Balkans on the international club circuit and that's exactly what CinEast's Balkan Night is about! |
