Czech Philharmonic and Rroma

The Czech Philharmonic is taking time to teach young disadvantaged Rroma music in a music and dance camp attended by 60 children.

Few remarks: There are more than 60 kids in need. And why dance? Isn’t this just too much stereotype?

Israel Galvan’s latest Show

A review of Israel Galvan’s latest spectacle in Vienna, Austria. His latest show, called Fla.Co.Men sees him with an apron, a rather unusual sight in Flamenco.

But well, however dressed, he is and remains one of the best Flamenco dancers!

Zurich: Fahrendes Kultur Zentrum

As every year, the so-called Travelling Culture Centre of Jenische, Sinti and Rroma stopped in Zurich. With a moving exhibition, a few caravans and some music, the centre aims to present the culture of travellers in Switzerland, mostly the Jenische, but to a lesser extent some of the Sinti and Rroma in that country.

French Chronicle …

French Chronicle …

In spite of some positive coverage due to the international Rroma day, this week’s French chronicle is not particularly nice. First, an intervention of the police in a Rroma camp near the prison of Loos in the North of France, an attempt to remove the Rroma from this camp; in the North, two families are expulsed; toilets are awaited in a camp near la Rochelle in the West of France; a new camping spot for travelers is installed near Paris in the bois de Vioncennes; near Paris, the arrival of Rroma is problematic; the Seine’s banks are being cleaned near a former Rroma camp; and news about a gang of thieves who stole tools near Dijon.

On a more positive note, a French Radio broadcasted for a day from a Rroma ghetto in Paris; and a positive action in the North of France!
