SUMMARY:Chicago Public Library Event -  Polish American Heritage Month Opening Program: In the Spirit of Ethnic Poland
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for the opening program which will be introduced by <strong>Joseph Zurawski</strong>, the author of <em>Polish Chicago: Our History, Our Recipes. </em>&nbsp;Following his introduction a spirited concert will be performed by the innovative Chicago group, <strong>The Megitza Quartet</strong>. The group was formed by vocalist/bassist Margaret Babiarz. &nbsp;Megitza&rsquo;s music is influenced by Balkan and Brazilian music as well as from the flamenco and gypsy styles. As far as Poland itself is concerned, the band uses highlanders&rsquo; traditions of Margaret&rsquo;s home village, Banska Wyzna, located in the Tatra Mountains of Southern Poland. Margaret herself is a composer and author of many songs which will be performed at the concert. She will be accompanied by Andreas Kapsalis on guitar, Marek Lichota on accordion/bayan, and Jamie Gallagher on drums.
