MITSOURA is one of the most illustrious Eastern European “world music” groups, characterized by its unique musical approach, sound and complex artistic pursuits. The group’s lead singer MONIKA (MITSOU) MICZURA, with her unmistakable voice and unique talent, is one of the best Gypsy performers the world over. She worked together with the likes of film producer Tony Gatlif (GadjoDilo), singing with Ando Drom and the Gipsy Kings, and touring the world with Fanfare Ciocarlia and the Global Vocal Meeting project. The band uses its artistic freedom to treat these beautiful melodies as more than conventional songs in a traditional musical approach: their unique arrangements of Indian percussion, Balkan strings and winds, the Hungarian dulcimer and the processed electronic basis of the sound, create a magical soundscape encompassing the songs. Despite the various effects, the repertoire remains unified: the beautiful melodies, Mitsoura’s suggestive performance style, the virtual instrumentation, and the special surround-sound acoustics make the group’s performance an unforgettable experience.
