The Andreas Kapsalis Trio Performing Live at Castaways on Thursday,
November 12th at 9:00 PM.
Sponsored by the Cornell Institute for European Studies.

The Andreas Kapsalis Trio will perform at Castaways on Thursday,
November 12th at 9:00 PM. The Trio represents the perfect
alliance of eight-fingered guitar virtuosity, outstanding melodic
themes and rhythmic variation on percussion. Here backed by drummer
Jamie Gallagher and multi-instrumentalist Darren Garvey, the
prodigious Kapsalis was awarded a Fellowship Grant to attend the
Sundance Film Composers Lab in 2005 and chosen to compose the film
score for the documentary “Black Gold,” which premiered at Sundance in
2006. The film connection has had an obvious influence on the writing
of Original Scores. The music morphs from resembling a film soundtrack
to a freak circus to full out thrash to subtle ballads. Elements of
Americana, flamenco, Greek, African and Arabic music are part of the
mix, each receiving equal time. The Trio will perform one night only
in Ithaca at one of the town’s premier music venues.
