KCH Melodies & Morsels: Italy Edition – An Evening of Italy’s Music & Culinary Culture with Zingerman’s Deli and Alla Boara


“…if the band has an Italian heart, it has a modern-jazz mind that incorporates advanced harmonies, shifting rhythms, high-wire soloing and complex structures.”
John Chacona – All About Jazz
Experience the flavors and sounds of Italy in an unforgettable evening at Kerrytown Concert House! KCH Melodies & Morsels: Italy Edition pairs a curated tasting of Italian foods from Ann Arbor favorite Zingerman’s Deli* and complimentary beverages from KCH’s cellar with the critically acclaimed Italian folk music of Alla Boara. Unearthing forgotten treasures of Italian folk music, Alla Boara reimagines centuries-old traditions through a modern lens. Praised by NPR and All About Jazz, this ensemble transforms timeless traditions into vivid, contemporary journeys that celebrate our shared humanity, as surprising, playful, and tender as the songs themselves. Featuring Ashlee Foreman’s captivating vocals and percussionist Anthony Taddeo’s (Oblivion Project) wildly imaginative arrangements, the storytelling and skilled performances of this group offer audiences a captivating journey through cultural heritage and universal human emotions.
Ashlee Foreman – Guest Vocalist
Anthony Taddeo – percussion
