Ezgi Karakuş' Pera Nova

Greenwood Social Hall in Kansas City.

About

Beyond the New. Ancient Roots, New Horizons. Where ancient echoes meet the unknown. Join us for an evening of boundary-crossing music with PERA NOVA, the new ensemble led by Turkish cellist, vocalist, and composer Ezgi Karakuş. Born from Ezgi’s lifelong journey across cultures and musical traditions, PERA NOVA brings together the rich musical heritage of Anatolia, Eastern European influences, original compositions, timeless folk melodies, jazz, and spontaneous improvisation. Each musician brings a distinct voice to the ensemble, weaving individual experiences into a shared musical language. Here, ancient traditions become starting points for new discoveries, and familiar sounds open doors to the unexpected. Neither bound by tradition nor defined by genre, PERA NOVA lives somewhere between memory and imagination, the ancient and the undiscovered. Come experience an evening of music without borders, where deep roots meet new horizons. ACCESSIBILITY NOTE: Greenwood Social Hall is located on the second floor of a historic building and is accessible only by an exterior concrete staircase.
