In the  season of 2023/2024 Repercussion presents the following artistic programs to the audience:

RHYTHM - IT'S FASCINATING!

The title of the concert comes from the song of Georg Gershwin - Fascinating Rhythm, which was extremely popular in the first half of the 20th century. This time is also the expansion of jazz - with its unique rhythm in which drums and percussion played a huge role!
