Mothers’ Day with DODO Orchestra in Club Fox.
DODO
Orchestra is a unique retro-world-jazz ensemble that has enchanted audiences
with their vivacious energy and a refined repertoire. This NYC-based miniature
orchestra is composed of young and talented musicians of the new generation who
are everything that is New York -- sophistication, cosmopolitanism and the
never-ending party. Inspired by beats and sounds from all over the world and
moved by the timeless appeal of the bygone era, DODO embarks upon crossing
times and places, performing with effortless originality gems of the French,
German, Italian and Russian retro. With bold flair they fuse tango and samba,
swing and chanson, balkanica and reggae, creating a delicious urban cocktail.
