Songs of freedom, rebellion, celebration, tradition, independence, loss, hope, decay and renewal - this is the music of Sam Sadigursky's The Solomon Diaries. Originally inspired by the peculiar history and modern remnants of the Borscht Belt, these songs present Sadigursky's unique work, bringing together an eclectic mix of tradition, improvisation, global influences and a classical chamber intimacy.

This concert will mark the release of a 3 album set of The Solomon Diaries, which came out Jan. 7th on Adhyaropa Records.
