The Porgy&Bess stage band “Purple is the Color” invites the Czech multiinstrumentalist and ethnomusicologist Marian Friedl and his Attacca Suite Beranci a Vlci (Rams and Wolves).
This musical suite (based on East Moravian and Carpathian folklore) combines many genres and brings together three musical formations in one ensemble: the ethnojazz band Baroshi, the folk women's choir Kudlanky from Kudlovice and the band RukyNaDudy (with a focus on the archaic music of the Beskids).
The first half of the evening will focus on the introduction of folk instruments to jazz context and the introduction of a smaller cast, the so-called „Baroshi-Band“. The whole and fulminant Attacca Suite Beránci a Vlci, will be heard in the second half of the evening.

About Baroshi band music:
Marian Friedl, internationally acknowledged multiinstrumentalist, ethnomusicologist, composer introduces his personal vision of Moravian world music. Deep knowledge of traditional music, jazz background and research activities in the field of disappearing musical instruments allow him to speak a new musical language. The repertoire of the ensemble includes folk and original songs rooted in the traditional music of the Western Carpathians and is based on the released music albums Divé husy (2016), Báránci a vlci (2016), 11 podob lásky (2020), Ruky na dudách (2021), Flétny nad Oslavou (2022). The band´s style is mainly based on folk, folklore, jazz and world music.
About the attaca suite Beránci a vlci:
Lambs and wolves (Beránci a vlci) are the personal vision of Moravian world music of Marian Friedl, who is the author, producer and director of the project. It is a 60-minute long attaca suite based on the folk music of Eastern Moravia. The suite contains original folk songs in a distinctive arrangement as well as Friedl's compositions and thematically deals with the exploration of the boundaries between opposites. The album Beránci a vlci was awarded the Czech Music Academy Anděl 2017 award in the folk category. (Marian Friedl)
