  • March 12, 2010, 8:00 pm
  • The Roby Lakatos Ensemble
  • Roby Lakatos has taken the passionate, hot-blooded tradition of gypsy music, and made it into a dazzling showcase of musical fireworks and virtuoso showmanship. Roby Lakatos is referred to as a gypsy violinist or “devil’s fiddler.” a classical virtuoso, a jazz improviser, a composer and arranger, and a 19th-century throwback, and he is actually all of these things at once. Bill Eddins conducts this unforgettable night of pops with a gypsy twist – an Eastern European feast for the eyes as well as the ears.
