Global Flavors contest to highlight Aurora’s top international eats in 2024
‘You can find food from seemingly all across the globe, so it makes sense to pair a food competition with our signature event’

Mixing English and Yolnu Matha from Northern Arnhem Land in the Northwest Territory of Australia. More #didgeridoo please #globalfest
Seriously, watch this last episode of @NPR #TinyDeskConcerts meets #globalFEST. The Romany band #TarafdeCaliu filmed in a village and it feels like the legendary film #LatchDrom. #NouraMintSeymali filmed in a small tent in #Mauritania. And #JustinAdams and #MayroDurante found a studio while on tour. https://youtu.be/_AZkq4wo3p8

Last up in this #thread of #music from the upcoming @globalFEST is #Tuareg / #tamashek #desertblues band #Tamikrest. https://youtu.be/Ku8j3jFN4NA
Fans of #Tinariwen and #khurangbin will love them. They are spacier and more psychedelic than some of the shredders like #MDouMoctar and #Bombino. It’s also exciting to see the range of talent coming out of the #Sahara.
#globalFEST takes place at #LincolnCenter a week from Sun, Jan 15. Tix here https://www.lincolncenter.org/series/lincoln-center-presents/globalfest-218
The cultural scramble extends to Bnat el Houariyat (showstopping trance music and dance from North Africa), Dengue Fever (a California band indebted to Cambodian psychedelia), the Legendary Ingramettes (deep-rooted Virginia gospel), and Moonlight Benjamin (Haitian rock). As always, the night flips conventional expectations of a concert—a person goes not to recognize a favored song but, rather, to hear a noise that they did not know existed.
— Jay Ruttenberg
On Jan. 15, the formerly itinerant festival celebrates its twentieth anniversary by settling into plush new quarters—Lincoln Center’s refurbished David Geffen Hall, where three performance spaces await this year’s hodgepodge.

Although globalFEST was conceived to grant artists from far-flung traditions stage time in front of music-industry types, it quickly became an open secret for that more honorable species, the civilian showgoer. Let others splurge on exotic travel; this sixty-dollar ticket leads to a head-spinning night of sounds from the world’s scattered neighborhoods.

Today’s @globalFEST preview, Colombia’s “fantasy salsa dura” visionaries Meridian Brothers & El Grupo Renacimiento. At the center of Bogota’s underground scene, in various records they have excavated imaginary B-salsa and cumbia music into pychedelic electro-tropical gems.

@lpsrocks I want to pass along a NOLA music recommendation. RAM are a great band mixing deep vodou rara rhythms with rock. They’ve been basing themselves in NOLA recently since Haiti is such a mess right now.
In the spirit of #christmas, here’s more #music from the upcoming @globalFEST, #TheLegendaryIngramettes - all women #NationalHeritageFellow #gospel #legends.
From the beginning, #globalFEST has included #US regional #rootsmusic in its (non)definition of #worldmusic
Still need a gift for #Xmas or #chanukah #hanukkah ? How bout tix for Jan 15 at #LincolnCenter
