WOMAD returns to Sicily in July with three nights of concerts in the stunning Teatro Antico, or Greek Theatre, of the hilltop town of Taormina. World-class bands play with a backdrop of smoking Mount Etna. WOMAD brings together many forms of music, arts and dance from countries and cultures all over the world. Having established its presence in the UK, the organisation's unique nomadic indentity evolved gradually during the Eighties, with initial events in Denmark and Canada in 1988. It now embraces events in Australia, North America, South Africa, Japan and several European countries each year. The festivals are weekend-long, family-oriented, active and diverse musical events, featuring simultaneous performances on two or three stages, including participatory workshops and special events for children, as well as musical and dance sessions hosted by many of the visiting artists. |
