When and where?
Saturday, May 3, 2025 at the Refectory of the Piarist Grammar School in Trenčín
This concert is part of the World Music Fusion series, which brings together musicians from around the world in unconventional – and all the more exciting – combinations.
Adam Ben Ezra is one of the most prominent figures of the modern double bass. His performances have garnered millions of views, and he has played on prestigious stages worldwide. Slovak audiences know him from festivals like Colours of Ostrava, Jazzové dni, and Viva Musica!. His unique style fuses jazz, funk, world music, and Latin rhythms.
Ľubomír Gašpar, winner of the Radio_Head Awards for his debut album Point of View, is considered one of today’s most inspiring cimbalom players. He brings a fresh perspective to the cimbalom as a solo instrument – full of color, contrast, and improvisational freedom.
The concert will feature original compositions by both artists, created specifically for this international project. Their fusion of cimbalom and double bass guarantees an intense and unforgettable experience for anyone eager to discover new musical horizons.
