1st concert: Bereris – Zegrí Duo

Sigá y Silente, meaning "in a soft and quiet way", is the title of the upcoming album by Andalusian percussionist Lucas Zegrí and Greek pianist Yiorgos Bereris. The duo, who met in 2021, shared a common need to communicate despite language barriers, and discovered music as their universal language.

Their orchestration combines a variety of percussion instruments from Latin American, Balkan and Middle Eastern traditions such as batá, pandeiro, cajón and bendir, complemented by a piano style that blends jazz with Eastern Mediterranean influences.

This fall they will release their debut album Sigá y Silente, with original compositions inspired by flamenco, Afro-Cuban rhythms, jazz and Greek traditional music. A notable collaboration on the album is with the talented Andalusian flamenco singer Blanca La Almendrita.
