Global Livestream TONIGHT! Friday 7:30 EST

Hello everyone!  Just a reminder that we have our free Livestream concert tonight! Plug into some nice speakers and enjoy the show, our gift to you!

Combining elements of Spanish flamenco, Arabic folk, Turkish strings, and French Manouche Django-jazz, and a core musical vision that societies derive strength from diversity, and that common ground can be found amidst one’s differences Sultans of String come together with artists from the Canadian Arabic Orchestra and around the globe with a unique mosaic of melody, vocals and strings.

There are no actual tickets, simply join the Livestream at 7:30 pm EST on Twitter, LinkedIn, or at:
