Michael Occhipinti’s Sicilian Project is dazzling audiences world-wide with its intriguing mix of rare Old World Sicilian folk material and a New World mix of adventurous electric guitar, chamber music, modern jazz, global rhythms, and modern grooves. Using music sung by Sicilian fishermen, sulphur miners, and folk musicians as a starting point, the group takes the audience on a journey that reveals the drama and passion of Sicily’s past and showcases the global sound and great musicianship of modern-day Canada.
