Talking Gigs presents Ando Glaso Collective, bringing you the enthusiasm, joy and music of Roma culture.
Founded in 2019 in Scotland, the Collective works with the diverse and fragmented Roma communities of Scotland to explore each other’s cultural heritage and create music together. This celebrated band has been funded by Creative Scotland and has appeared at prestigious events such as Celtic Connections.
What is a Talking Gig? This innovative format combines musically illustrated discussion in the first half, and a full performance in the second half, allowing both the music, and the musicians, to really speak.
A pre-gig Social Forum will celebrate aspects of Roma culture including music, dance, exhibitions, videos and food.
Free community places at the concert and social forum available – please email performance.venues-audience.development@sheffield.ac.uk.
In collaboration with Sheffield University Concerts and Welcoming Cultures.
