The BandA eclectics LIVE at Lilypad
THURSDAY, MAY 29
10pm-1am



The BandA ecLectics is a 10-piece ensemble consisting of musicians with jazz, world and classical music tendencies and affiliations. These professional musicians will be performing this coming Thursday 2 one-hour sets of original compositions with a fresh and unique sound, at Lilypad, in Cambridge. The musical material involves finely composed orchestrations as well as improvisation, arranged organically into a sound that vibrates originality.

The instrumentation is very unique as well, as it employs timbers with a variety of reference, summing up into an eclectic ensemble with an intriguing personality and vibe.

The group, and its leader, pianist and composer, Petros Sakelliou have recently (Oct.2007) received important critical acclaim honored with the 2007 Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz Composition Competition Prize. The band performed the winning composition in front of 3,600 people at the Kodak Theater in L.A.

Continuing to work hard into 2008 the interest towards the ensemble has been growing rapidly, through concerts and performances in Boston and New York City.



The BandA eclectics will be performing at Lilypad Inman Square, 1353 Cambridge Street, Cambridge MA this coming Thursday May 29, 10pm-1am
