Into the Light - This CD was a long time in coming...and we hope you will agree that it has been worth the wait! "Into the Light" contains the very best of Gypsy Dance Theatre's varied and unique musical styles. Of the 15 songs, all but three are our own compositions. Tsura's superb violin work is a revelation you will surely enjoy. Tulo's horns, Taraski's accordion, and the superb drumming of Lucik and Mischka, add harmony and a powerful backbeat. Allochka's rendition of the gypsy anthem Djelem Djelem is the finest we have ever heard. Gypsy Dance Theatre's diverse music reflects influences ranging from the Middle East to Africa, Eastern Europe and Latin America. All of this, and more, are contained on "Into the Light." We hope you enjoy it.

Dedicated to our Dancers - The music of Gypsy Dance Theatre is born of the dance. The songs on “Into the Light” were composed and/or developed specifically for our diverse dance performance numbers. Some songs support strictly-choreographed routines, while others are created as launching points for improvisation. Thus it is our pleasure to dedicate this recording to our dancers; the wonderful women of Gypsy Dance Theatre. Thank you Alla, Amaya, Anastasia, Farasha, Katia, Kira, Mafe, Nula Luna, Sereen, Soraya, and Zara. You are our joy, our inspiration, and our musical artistic visions made beautifully visible.

Choreographers and Performers - We have always tried to make our Gypsy Dance Theatre performances a place of welcome and ongoing artistic exploration. We invite you to use our music in your performances and to set new choreography to our songs. Please provide music credit, and send us a video of your work.

A World of Thanks - Our gypsy hats are off to Tsura for her wonderful multi-track violin playing, and to Terrence Karn for undertaking the immense task of recording, mixing, and mastering. This project could not have been realized without them. We also wish to gratefully acknowledge our wonderful audiences, the photographers who so graciously share their talents, and the many superb guest dancers and musicians who have graced our stage over the years. A big “Opa” to all of you, as we travel together “Into the Light.”
