Internationally-renowned artists performing in Cleveland with the Stimmen
World Voices Festival include:
-Senge, a vocal trio from Madagascar, whose music reflects the country's
unique culture with influences of Portuguese Fado, French Musette and
traditional rhythms of eastern Africa, mixed with polyphonic vocal sounds.
-Abdoulaye Diabete, a native of Mali, a master of West African griot
singing.
-Sudha Rangunathan, one of the most important contemporary vocalists from
southern India, whose techniques have roots in the carnatic style.
-Corin Curschellas of Switzerland, who combines hip-hop in the traditional
Swiss Roman language with French rap, South African township sounds and
Alpine yodeling.
-"Mitsou" Juhacz Miczura, a young Hungarian gypsy singer with a remarkable
voice performs fascinating melodies of her ancestral music.
-Rinde Eckert of the U.S., who combines American blues, jazz and rock in a
uniquely eclectic style with his strong background in contemporary classical
music.

During the ensemble's first North American tour, the Stimmen World Voices
Festival brings together a unique mix of eight exceptional singers from
Asia, Africa, Europe and America.  Their global vocal meeting conveys a
distinctive combination of music from a wide range of styles, genres,
cultures and countries.  These artists create a new musical landscape,
transforming empty space into a treasury of vocal sounds and intercultural
expressions.  

Our presentation of the Stimmen World Voices Festival is a part of the
Center for Arts and Culture's new "Contemporary Visions Series," which
explores contemporary issues through talented nationally and internationally
renowned artists who represent diverse international cultures and all
performing arts disciplines.
