Krakauer & Tagg’s Good Vibes Explosion
Thursday, February 20 | 7:30 p.m.
Renowned klezmer clarinetist David Krakauer and South African pianist and composer Kathleen Tagg present their new project, Good Vibes Explosion. By responding to negativity in the world, they created a musical celebration of our shared humanity. Their first album from the project, Mazel Tov Cocktail Party, offers an exuberant, high-octane mix of dance music, blending square dance, polka, hora, calypso, hornpipe, and hip-hop. It’s pure joy.
