Get ready to dance, sing or just give in to the grooves when 2024 favourite Marsala returns to Jazz at The Lounge in 2025 with special guest vocalist Viktoria Bolonina. Led by the charismatic Joseph Zarb on vocals and guitar, Marsala has performed some of the best music from Cuba, Colombia, Brazil, Macedonia, Serbia, Bosnia, Russia, France, Italy, Spain, the Middle East and Zimbabwe for over 25 years. An incredibly versatile and multi-lingual singer, Viktoria Bolonina's career has spanned the opera stage to The Voice. Don't miss the magic when she brings her mesmerising vocals to Marsala's irresistible energy.
'Here was a singer whose engagement with the text was immediate - she is a Russian speaker - and it told in every detail… Nothing Bolonina did or sang for the entire time she was on stage was wrong. Utterly, utterly accomplished in singing and acting, she could - frankly - have been singing the Yellow Pages: it would have been every bit as riveting.' - Classical Melbourne
'For two decades Marsala has been turning music from all around the world into one repertoire, and people from around the world into one audience. Every groove was somewhere between vibrant and irresistible, and virtually every solo raised the stakes of its host song, whether it was Khusid's diamond-edged trumpet blazing on Dark Eyes or Stojcevski's machine-gun alto on Wedding Cocek… this was music as art and for dancing all at once; music for going a little crazy. And the community that goes crazy together sticks together.' - John Shand, Sydney Morning Herald
