Valentines Weekend Concert -Just Across the River
“A Gypsy Rose for Django”
The Bohemian Dream Band with Julie Wilde
Sunday, February 12th @ 5 p.m. At the Westin –Savannah
Kissy! Kiss! Kiss! It’s time again for saying those three little words... "I love you!" But now, say it with food, wine and JAZZ.
The Bohemian Dream Band, led by violinist Ricardo Ochoa and guitarist Sasha Strunjas, has a distinct flavor of both Gypsy and European Jazz. The Band brings passion, soul and artistry to the stage with their upbeat swing that revives and expands the romantic exoticism of the 1930's "Gypsy Jazz" Parisian club scene.
Their unique styling allows the ensemble to embrace jazz standards alongside of Latin tunes, Tangos with contagious rhythms and haunting melodies. The performance will be a tribute to “Mamouche Jazz”, the style of music developed by guitarist Django Reinhardt and violinist Stephan Grapelli. Fast strumming and exciting melodies will be combined with the seductive voice of vocalist Julie Wilde to captivate and transport audiences to an era of flirtatious jazz.
Ms. Wilde is a singer-songwriter, performer, and music educator. A classically-trained musician, she graduated Magna Cum Laude from Georgia Southern University with a Bachelor of Music degree with emphasis in Piano, Voice and Music Education and a Master of Science for Teachers degree in Music.
Over the past 5 years, Ms. Wilde has written, produced and recorded three CDs of original music. (Cost to general public: $10 - Free for CJA members)

"Music is your own experience, your own thoughts, your wisdom. If you don't live it, it won't come out of your horn. They teach you there's a boundary line to music. But, man, there's no boundary line to art."
-- Charlie Parker
