Footsteps. Effie Anna, a natural-born storyteller, will guide you through the uncertainty of the moment. You will follow her footsteps and she will trace around yours. Like a ray of sunshine, bringing warmth against your skin, the gentle touch of affection when someone you love holds your hand, let music take you through a collection of stories: intimate, yet strong; hesitant, yet undoubtful. Along with her, on this venture, will be people she met, loved and connected with musically. Each of them will be carrying parts of their own story. Embrace the atmosphere around you and enjoy the journey.   Musicians: Marius Holland – Piano Jerom van der Laar Wijen – Electric Bass Nicolas Kyriakides – Drums Tasos Alexiou – Guitar (Acoustic, Electric) Andreas Savvides – Guitar (Electric) Caetano Ruin – Percussion Sara Maraston – Cello Janne Audomara – Violin Megija Marija Kuzmina – Backing Vocals Feli Them – Backing Vocals Nadia Bouamra Martinez – Backing Vocals Qisheng Zheng – Flute Moritz Beck – Trombone César Gavira Lara – Piano

Kaledidoscope Sara Maraston is a cello player who dives into the world of instrumental folk jazz. The title of this performance, Kaleidoscope, reflects the core of Sara’s musical vision. Like the shifting patterns and vibrant colors seen through a kaleidoscope, her compositions take you on a journey to a colorful world, where emotions are in constant movement, turning upside down and reshaping themselves into new meanings and different perspectives. In this concert, Sara brings together musicians and friends she met during her studies at the Conservatory of ArtEZ. At the heart of the performance, however, is her established band. In this ensemble, the melodic voice of the cello waves together with the clarinet and saxophone, all supported by a rhythm section that’s uniquely accompanied by the presence of the accordion. With a strong background in classical music, Sara creates an elegant fusion of tradition and innovation. Her music reflects a deep connection to her roots and the diverse musical influences that shape her work.
