A quick search for Georgia on the Internet will get you nowhere close to the picturesque country nestled between the Black Sea and the Caucasus Mountains. The country’s vibrant landscapes and rich history hide underneath layers, found only by those who seek deeper. Simplifying things for us, thankfully, the
Tbilisi State Chamber Orchestra, also known as the Georgian Sinfonietta, will bring a musical presentation of the region’s heritage and culture at its debut performance in the city today. From reviving the age-old Baroque music in the region, to performing Georgian folk music for a new audience, Giorgi Kerelashvili, artistic director of the orchestra shares what awaits the orchestra, and its audiences.
