Global Village Denmark / New York

Global Village Denmark / New York is an ongoing collaborative project between several world musicky bands from Denmark and several individual musicians from New York.  The Danish participants came to NYC in January for a gig at Makor in conjunction with the annual Arts Presenters’ conference (APAP).

While they were here, we recorded sessions with three of the four Danish

artists: Artsy chanteuse Laila Skovmand, Balkan-rooted accordionist Leko Nika

and Balkan-inspired maniacs Afenginn.  NYC guests included acclaimed

Chinese-born pipa player Min Xiao Fen, the Klezmatics' horn player / keyboardist (and noted collaboration-alchemist) Frank London and Brazlian-born pianist / keyboardist Helio Alves, who has played with everyone from Yo-Yo Ma to Paquito D'Rivera. 

 

Special thanks to Dalia Faitelson, project co-producer with Nili Belkind, whose band also participated in the Makor show but was not present for this session; and engineers Bil Bowen and assistant Juan Aboites.
