Carolina Moon is one of the most exciting, innovative and gut-wrenchingly beautiful of Auckland's premier world music ensembles led by vocalist Carolina. Evocative song from medieval lands radiates an unmistakable pulse. Light travels, so does song … for almost 1000 years …. . Mingled with wild exotic grooves and contemporary, jazz tinged original world sounds at the beautiful edge of sanity. Carolina’s vocal weaves Eastern and Western blends into a passionate program of exquisite melodies, charismatic klezmer feels and flamenco grooves, amid songs drawn from the surrounding tide of musical inspiration.
