Orchestra Euphonos is a Bay Area-based eastern european folk and klezmer band led by trumpeter Peter Bonos.
Dipping in the deep well of music from Albania and Epirus in Greece, Dodona moves between the mournful to the celebratory.
With a repertoire that goes from plaintive, to trance inducing, to driving, Dodona is one of the few groups in the Bay Area specifically focused on the Albanian and Epirus diaspora.
So whether you love a good tsamiko, or the familiarity of a syrtos, or even if you just love to dance with wild abandon this unique band is sure to deliver.
Dodona’s members are Jonathan Kipp on accordion and vocals, Kent Kissinger on guitar, and Calvin Lai on clarinet. We are also grateful to be joined by Sean Tergis on percussion.
