Lucian Ban & Elevation: Songs From Afar / Angela Drăghicescu

This was a super-fun night to be sure, with three kinds of music: a fun Enescu arrangment, then colorful, powerful instrumental jazz (led by Lucian Ban on piano with legends including Billy Hart on drums), then jazz arrangements of Transylvanian folk songs with Gavril Tărmure singing.

  • George Enescu: Romanian Rhapsody No. 1, arranged for piano (Angela Drăghicescu), two violins (Brittany Boulding and Maria Sampen), Viola (Aaron Conitz), Cello (Rajan Krishnaswami), and Double Bass (Steve Schermer).
  • Four songs by Lucian Ban - Lucian Ban (piano), Brad Jones (bass), Billy Hart (drums), Abraham Burton (tenor sax), Mat Maneri (viola).
  • Transylvanian folk song arrangements - the above group plus Gavril Tărmure (Transylvanian folk singer).
