SUMMARY:Dinner–Music–Dialogue
DESCRIPTION:Food & Music\nby The String Octet\, Mazen Al Ashkar\, Judith Baten \nGROND Bijdorpstraat 1\, 1096AP\, Amsterdam\nDinner–Music–Dialogue 19:00–21:00 (doors 18:30)\nTickets (inc. food & concert): regular €25 (or more) / discount €20 available at the door or online here.\n▶︎ Reservation required ◀︎ Please RSVP by booking your tickets online \nFREE ENTRY after 20:30 with live music by the Brazilian band Arte Feiticeira\, and uplifting music until late! \n\nABOUT the event \nFood and music go well together\, but the challenge is to present it in such a way that it reinforces each other! That is exactly what this evening is. Musically\, a time journey is made that starts in romanticism and extends to high-modern improvisation. The dishes will be inspired by the atmosphere created by the music. A unique experience! \nThe String Octet:\nAfter coming together as a group last year in this unique composition\, this is already the second project of this octet. These eight string players have been playing together for years\, but this composition has proven to be a great success. They have already rehearsed a wonderful program and will play it with great dedication. This octet likes to experiment. They look for concert formats where the music can be achieved even better. Music is experienced together with the sensations of food. We look forward to the experiences of all visitors! \n\nJudith Baten: Food\nMax Bruch: Octet for strings\nD.S.: Two pieces for sting octet\nBram Faber: Strands\nMazen Al Ashkar – An improvisation on two sequences exploring microtonality in modular setup.

SUMMARY:Opening GROND Kitchen and Music of Rubakov trio + Moonshine
DESCRIPTION:AN EVENING WITH MUSIC OF RUBAKOV TRIO & MOONSHINE AND FOOD FROM OUR **NEW** KITCHEN!\nPrice for dinner sliding scale starting from € 12\,50\, \nPrice for concert sliding scale starting from € 5 \n\nPROGRAMME\n18:00 / GROND Kitchen Opening – A Taste of Things to Come\nGROND\, the new art space and collective at Nieuwe Bajesdorp\, is rooted in collectivity\, sustainability\, cross-pollination\, and process-based work. As part of this vision\, we are excited to introduce the GROND Kitchen\, a space where food becomes an extension of our artistic and communal practice. \nOn February 14th\, we invite you to join us for the official opening of the GROND Kitchen. From 18:00 onwards\, you are welcome to explore our food offering\, followed by a live concert later in the evening. (En feestje) \nWhat to Expect?\nWe will serve a diverse selection of small dishes\, offering you a taste of what GROND Kitchen has to offer. The evening will feature an assortment of vegetarian (mostly vegan) bites\, along with a soup & salad buffet inspired by Eastern-European cuisine\, in harmony with the music of the night. \nA Preview of the GROND Kitchen\nThis event is a first introduction to our culinary approach—an opportunity to share our vision through food and give you a glimpse of what’s to come. The chefs are Ramon Smit and Judith Baten (with the support of Lianne van Roekel). \nWe are looking forward to sharing this moment with you! Join us at GROND on February 14th at 18:00. \n \n20:00 / Music of Rubakov Trio & Moonshine\nWe offer you this evening improvisation and freewheeling poetic compositions and local country music! \nThe music of the Rubakov Trio is inspired by the work of the Soviet artist Alessandro Rubakov (Messina 1912 – Jrkoetsk 1981)\, Eric Dolphy\, Leo Wadada\, and artist Maria Basile. Hansko has been playing with Bas for decades in the phenomenal band Plan Kruutntoone. \n\nRuggero di Luisi (Palermo/amsterdam) drums and fruleta.\nHansko Visser (bonn/groningen) otwin guitar and rattles\nBas Alblas (haarlem/den andel) double bass\nLyrics by Hansko\, Wadada\, Luetzi and Brodsky\n\nThe music of Moonshine is a soulful country/bluegrass ‘met een lach en een traan’ (with a smile and a tear). From Hank Williams till Henk Wijngaard. Moonshine is Marita (voice\, guitar) Nico (banjo\, voice)\, Lucas (bass). \n \nAca Abujevic Rubakov (Giampilieri 1912- near Irkutsk 1981?) was the fruit of love
of an afro-russian sailor and the priests daughter in a sicilian village…
they met in the aftermath of the 1911 earth quake in Messina\, where
the russian fleet tried to help out\, Maria was a voluntary nurse\, and the little Allessandro (aca) was conceived. \nWhen he was born\, his father had been re-allocated to Russia already. Turning 17 he left the warmth of his Sicilian mothers home
to find traces of his father and his background. during his time in the soviet union
studied a few years at a leningrad art collective\, but then
dissapeared for decennia.\nit was known only much later (in the end of the eighties)\, that he
spent time with the Tengeri people near Irkutsk\, where his father Abu was said
to have died in a Stalin camp in the thirties\, and where Aca enventually fell ill.
He was taken care of by the local Shaman and spent his last year painting
on literally everything he could find. \nHansko met his work the first time he played in Vilnius with I Zimbra visiting a
semi legal art exhibition ( 1988!) where among the work of contemporay lithuanian artists\, some of the
found objects of A A Rubakov where shown.
Later\, while at work in Messina we found more drawings and dug op fragments of the story of his life.
With the help of people in Petersburg and Dusanbe (!) later paintings were retrieved.
To us \, the most intrigueing element of the work is the search of an artist for his (black) roots\, mixed with the siberian
shamanistic influences of his last dwelling place.
We try to combine it with our search for a musical background where we try to belong\, to feel at home. \n
