Balkan Fever

Balkan Fever concert in Pretorialaan - Cununa Ensemble

The concert will take place outside - in Pretorialaan. Address: Pretorialaan 4b / 3072EM Rotterdam  With a crossover of classical music and folk music from Eastern Europe, the Cununa Ensemble provides a great spectacle full of sensitive music and virtuoso performances. Because the musicians of the Cununa Ensemble have classical music education and a background in folk music, they are characterized by their own sound and adaptations of classical music pieces with a wink of spontaneous improvisation here and there. Listen to Mariana Preda on pan flute and vocals, Noa Eyl on violin, Dani Luca on cimbalom, Gabriel Barbalau on double bass and cello, and Alper Kekec on percussion and Turkish lute. The Cununa Ensemble was founded in the Netherlands and consists of five musicians with different backgrounds and nationalities who share the same passion for music.  On August 9, you can also enjoy homemade Romanian delicacies.

 The mission of Cununa Ensemble is to delight the audience with unique arrangements of old folk songs, classical music, and jazz that will bring out the unique and powerful voice of each instrument. Like a wreath (Cununa) the musical style, colors, songs and interpretations are woven into a single flower crown ready to stimulate all the senses of the audience.
