Amaraterra + Mr Morski

🇮🇹🇧🇬🇮🇹🇧🇬

The Post Bar is delighted to present this European folklore focused event with two of most distinguishable live acts in London’s grassroots scene.

AMARATERRA @amaraterra

TRADITIONAL SONGS AND DANCES FROM SALENTO AND SOUTHERN ITALY

#Pizzica is the folk dance of the Salento region, in South-East of Italy. A crossroad of civilisations, Salento has preserved its ancient Greek-Roman folk roots: the Dionysian festivals and the mythological poisonous bite of the tarantula inducing an irresistible urge to dance into a trance-like state at the relentless pace of the tamburello frame drum.

Formed in London in 2011 by a small group passionate Salentini, Amaraterra has evolved into a multinational ensemble influenced by the multicultural London scene without losing its traditional southern Italian roots.

Amaraterra’s songs speak of love, happiness, longing and passion in a simple,

unsophisticated way that breaks through language and cultural barriers. The energetic and joyful music invites the audience into dance and togetherness.
