About
Canzoniere Grecanico Salentino is regarded as one of Italy’s leading and longest-standing traditional music ensembles, hailing from the Puglia in Salento—the heel of the Italian boot.
The seven-piece band are among a new wave of young performers reinventing Southern Italy’s Pizzica musical and dance traditions for today’s global audience, and their show is an explosion of life: full of energy, passion, rhythm and mystery, bringing the audience from the past into modernity and back.
