 JAZZ
IN THE OLIVE GROVE
STEFAN PASBORG & IBRAHIM
ELECTRIC
Friday 13 June 2014
The Olive Grove, Delikipos / 8.30pm
The Pharos Arts Foundation and the Royal Danish Embassy in Nicosia
invite you to experience one of Denmark’s premier jazz musicians, Stefan
Pasborg and his band IBRAHIM ELECTRIC. The concert will take place on
Friday 13 June 2014 at the Foundation’s open-air venue, The Olive Grove,
in Delikipos / 8:30pm. IBRAHIM ELECTRIC’s style is not for the pedantic.
There are elements of old-fashioned soul/jazz – AFRObeat - 60’s
acid-power-beat - and of course the Trio’s trademark: the fast,
almost-punk passages in which the three musicians merge into one playful
organism. Join us for what is sure to be an unforgettable and exciting
musical experience.
