Each year the Fes Festival of World Sacred Music, usually held in Morocco, puts on a performance which honors the distinctions among different cultures and dissolves musical and artistic boundaries. This year is a unique celebration, held in Buffalo in conjuction with the recent visit of the Dalai Lama. French classical music, Sufi music from India and Pakistan, a capella spirituals from England, Japanese drumming, a mass from Argentina and a finale from Mali’s maestro Salif Keita are just a few examples of the festival’s diversity. The UN has named this one of the seven most important world events that furthers the dialogue between cultures. This extraordinary performance will be at UB’s Center for the Arts on Tuesday (Oct. 17), 8pm.
