George Lernis is a world recognized drummer, world percussionist, composer and educator born in Nicosia, Cyprus and now making his home in the U.S.. George’s latest project, Between Two Worlds, is part of an initiative and recording he has released, that was inspired by the ongoing stereotyping of immigrants based on their origins, religions, and skin color. Being an immigrant himself, this is a social issue he is deeply passionate about.

For this event, George will give a short spoken introduction about the project and will then perform music from the album with a stellar group of musicians including the wonderful Turkish vocalist, Burcu Gülec, Swedish born bassist Bruno Råberg, American trumpeter Emiel De Jaegher, and a very special surprise guest playing piano, oud, and ney.
