City of London Sinfonia and Ljova: CLoSer

A modern-day tale of immigration from Russia to the USA, Ljova’s musician parents moved from Moscow to New York as communism fell in 1990. The result is Ljova’s unique musical voice that combines classical music with his own blend of Russian folk music, jazz, Balkan Gypsy and Klezmer. Performing on viola and violin alongside City of London Sinfonia, this exciting CLoSer concert sees Ljova bring his haunting and exciting music to East London.
