They are considered one of the UK’s leading exponents of Romany Gypsy music. Inspired by the charisma of Esma Redžepova, the virtuosity of Taraf de Haïdouks and the humour of Emir Kusturica. Tatcho’s  sound is guaranteed to lure listeners into a world of pain and joy, delivering an exciting and memorable performance.</p> <p>Gundula Stojanova Gruen is a virtuoso violinist and singer who has travelled extensively, transcribing melodies that she learned first-hand from Gypsies and folk musicians. Described by Songlines Magazine as ‘a shining star in the UK’s Balkan music scene’, her unique performance style showcases a technical ability acquired through intensive conservatoire training as well as a colourful and charismatic personality. Her arrangements and compositions, whilst drawing influence from her love and extensive knowledge of Romany Gypsy music, are original and highly personal.</p> <p>Past performances include the main stages of Rhythm of the World and Crawley Festivals, the South Bank Centre, Kings Place,  Equator’s Women of the World Festival, the Union Chapel as well as intimate, unplugged performances at the Canterbury Festival and other unusual venues.</p> <h2>Food available from our specialist caterers.</h2> <p>There will also be some specially prepared world cuisine by our chefs newly arrived who have their own home catering set-up in Kent.

The evening will reflect on our achievements, and put us on track for our next 75 years!</p> <p>Thanks to our Tenterden Rotary member, Priti Paintal, Artistic Director of Equator/ShivaNova, our evening will include music from the new <strong>Orchestra from Everywhere</strong> – a group of high-quality classically trained musicians from different countries who have made the UK their home. They play music together from their own traditions and cultures, along with music they have created to bring cultures and identities together.

The movie explores Limbu people’s lifestyle in their homeland, their beliefs derived from their spiritual sacred text called MUNDHUM (Moon-Dhoom) in modern day village setting, assimilated well with the mainstream Nepali culture along with their own Yakthung culture.</p> <p>The movie mainly focuses on the rituals that are performed by the family when a family member is pregnant, and also focuses on the hardened belief of Yakthung Limbu people that ignoring rituals will bring omen to the mother and baby inside her womb.</p> <p>The term SUGUP itself is a fatal fate of a mother and/or the baby she is carrying in her womb due to the shunning of mandatory rituals. SUGUP tries to portray many other aspects of Limbu people and their cultural spectrum, such as their traditional dances, local markets, foods, beverages, sacred rituals etc.</p> <p>The movie contains both Khas Nepali language and Yakthung Paan (Limbu Language) with English subtitles.</p> <p><img loading="lazy" width="1414" height="2000" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1450" src="http://www.equatorfestival.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/WWIAT-DOVER-Film-flyer.jpg" alt="" srcset="http://www.equatorfestival.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/WWIAT-DOVER-Film-flyer.jpg 1414w, http://www.equatorfestival.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/WWIAT-DOVER-Film-flyer-212x300.jpg 212w, http://www.equatorfestival.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/WWIAT-DOVER-Film-flyer-724x1024.jpg 724w, http://www.equatorfestival.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/WWIAT-DOVER-Film-flyer-768x1086.jpg 768w, http://www.equatorfestival.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/WWIAT-DOVER-Film-flyer-1086x1536.jpg 1086w" sizes="(max-width: 1414px) 100vw, 1414px" /></p> <p>Tickets: <a class="ai1ec-ticket-url-exported" href="https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/nepalese-film-series-sugup--tickets-1061617098319?aff=oddtdtcreator">https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/nepalese-film-series-sugup--tickets-1061617098319?aff=oddtdtcreator</a>.</p>Europe/London2024-11-23T14:30:00Europe/London2024-11-23T16:30:00en-USFutureDover Museum @ Market Square, Dover, CT16 1PH0http://www.equatorfestival.com/event/nepalese-film-series-sugup-part-of-winter-world-in-a-tent/externalthumbnail;http://www.equatorfestival.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/WWIAT-DOVER-Film-flyer.jpg;1414;2000,medium;http://www.equatorfestival.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/WWIAT-DOVER-Film-flyer.jpg;1414;2000,large;http://www.equatorfestival.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/WWIAT-DOVER-Film-flyer.jpg;1414;2000,full;http://www.equatorfestival.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/WWIAT-DOVER-Film-flyer.jpg;1414;2000https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/nepalese-film-series-sugup--tickets-1061617098319?aff=oddtdtcreatorai1ec-1449@www.equatorfestival.com2026-05-12T13:17:51ZWinter World in a Tent fair with stalls, world food + performances – Dover<p>Welcome to Winter World in a Tent fair in Dover!

Their repertoire includes most of the well-known Balkan favourites, however, their real musical heart beats for the hidden musical gems – songs and pieces which band leader Gundula Stojanova Gruen discovers on her numerous field trips to previous Ottoman regions, learning and jamming with Balkan music masters.</p> <p>Tatcho Drom means ‘True Journey’, in Rromanes, the language of Romany Gypsies. They are considered one of the UK’s leading exponents of Romany Gypsy music. Inspired by the charisma of Esma Redžepova, the virtuosity of Taraf de Haïdouks and the humour of Emir Kusturica. Tatcho’s sound is guaranteed to lure listeners into a world of pain and joy, delivering an exciting and memorable performance.</p> <p>Gundula Stojanova Gruen is a virtuoso violinist and singer who has travelled extensively, transcribing melodies that she learned first-hand from Gypsies and folk musicians. Described by Songlines Magazine as ‘a shining star in the UK’s Balkan music scene’, her unique performance style showcases a technical ability acquired through intensive conservatoire training as well as a colourful and charismatic personality. Her arrangements and compositions, whilst drawing influence from her love and extensive knowledge of Romany Gypsy music, are original and highly personal.</p> <p>Past performances include the main stages of Rhythm of the World and Crawley Festivals, the South Bank Centre, Kings Place, Equator’s Women of the World Festival, the Union Chapel as well as intimate, unplugged performances at the Canterbury Festival and other unusual venues.</p> <h2>Food available from our specialist caterers.</h2> <p>There will also be some specially prepared world cuisine by our chefs newly arrived who have their own home catering set-up in Kent. Food will be available during the event and will need to be booked in advance.</p> <p>Bring your own picnic chairs and mats. Toilets will be available to use.</p> <p>Performances may be recorded for live streaming at a later date.</p> <p>You are welcome to arrive early for a walk in some of the beautiful AONB countryside around us.</p> <p>You will need to register and reserve your place before the event. There is limited capacity so please book early to avoid disappointment. Donations are most welcome and can be made after you have registered when we will send you a link.</p> <p>Suggested donations – £ 7, £6 – food.

Kadialy has played venues and festivals across the world, with extensive tours in Europe, Australia, Asia, as well as North and South America.</p> <p>Since arriving in the UK, Kadialy has played a significant part in enriching the London musical scene with his griot legacy. Kadialy has taught the kora (a traditional instrument with 21 strings) at SOAS for the last decade. In this time, he has contributed to countless musical projects as a collaborator and a session musician. He has toured with theatre projects with the London Globe Theatre, renowned children and sensory theatre company Oily Cart, and RSC’s production of Julius Caesar. In 2015 he took part in the remaking of the TV series Roots as a musician, cultural consultant, and dialect coach.</p> <p>Kadialy makes regular appearances on radio and television and has released several albums. He released his latest album in March. “Terri Kunda” – House of Friendship – is a collaboration with Gao Hong, director of the Chinese Music Ensemble and senior lecturer in Chinese musical instruments at Carleton University, USA. The album has already attracted outstanding accolades including two gold medals at the Global Music Awards for best duo and instrumentalist album: Gold Winners Global Music Award, and a 5-star rating from prestigious world music magazine Songlines Magazine.</p> <p>With his sound archive, Kadialy Kouyate draws on his heritage and its traditional songs to create his own mesmerising compositions, leading his fantastic band into the West African groove.</p> <h2>Food available from our specialist caterers.</h2> <p><strong>There will also be some specially prepared world cuisine by our chefs newly arrived who have their own home catering set-up in Kent.
