What's the music?

Oliver Levi Violin

Levitation Quartet

We are a collection of San Franciscans who enjoy bringing forth the rhythmic and melodic motifs of Jazz Manouche, Mediterranean, Balkan, and Latin Folk Music, and the Turkish Classical Tradition. These elements come together in a whirling cabaret, which aims to celebrate the levity of the free, nomadic spirit.

Personnel

Oliver Levi - Violin
William Bravton - Guitar
Colin O'Leary - Bass
Sebastien Aleman - Percussion

Program

Our program will begin with a piece of Claude Debussy, arranged by the iconic jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt.
Continuing on this interplay between classical repertoire and jazz standards, we'll go on to explore some of the "Real Book" of Jazz Manouche, interspersed with our takes on some classics from Niccolo Paganini, Pyotr Tchaikovsky, turn-of-the-century Turkish composer Tanburi Cemil Bey, and modern Turkish rock artist Gaye Su Akyol. Along the way, we'll also share some original compositions of William "Crescent" Brayton and Oliver Levi, culminating in our combined Flamenco Suite, Nazende // Crescent Sirto.
