June 20, 2014 8:00 PM Minas Presents "La Giara; The Water Jug" at World Cafe Live PHL

Patricia King's La Giara merges Italian Folk music and Opera with Brazilian Choro and Jazz, telling the story of her family's emigration from Sicily to Philadelphia. Comprised of compositions, both dramatic and comedic, La Giara expresses themes relevant to gender oppression, migration and culture losses that families experienced in adapting to a new world.
