About
The group will treat listeners to new arrangements of folk and old popular music in Persian, Arabic, Turkish, Greek and some crossovers in English/French. Opa Yallah will perform several original compositions inspired by these styles along with these selections. There is a common thread in these musical cultures’ melodies, rhythms and poetry, which Opa Yallah weaves together in its concerts. The current lineup of musicians from Türkiye, the Philippines, Latvia and Canada will play bouzouki, oud, çumbus, guitar, keys and percussion.
