This 9-piece a cappella group interprets traditional songs from the U.S., Bulgaria, Corsica, and the former Soviet Republic of Georgia. Their repertoire includes shape-note songs (a traditional New England song style), powerful gospel, haunting Appalachian folk, and a mix of sacred and secular pieces that demonstrate an incredible range of traditions from abroad. Mesmerizing all-woman vocal ensemble Orfeia opens with a special performance by group leader and Bulgarian vocal star Tatiana Sarbinska. The rich, diverse sounds of Eastern European, Bulgaria, Russia, Georgia and the Balkans are given voice through village songs, richly ornamented arrangements, custom songs with overlapping lines, antiphonal songs with drones, seasonal music, and children's songs. 8pm. $15, $10 mbrs, stus.
