World Music Café presents its final celebratory ‘Dinner & Show’ event for this year on Friday 4 November 2022 at the Mt Lawley Bowling Club Function Room.
Our final show includes two high calibre acts featuring the Praashekh Borkar ensemble (India) and Perth Choro (Brazil), plus a banquet of international cuisine by chef Nimrod Kazoom (Israel) and the World Music Café catering team.
Led by Danilo Da Paz, Perth Choro is a talented group that have built a popular following for their lively take on the Brazilian traditional repertoire. Best described as ‘the New Orleans jazz of Brazil’, Choro is at the heart of all Brazilian music as a hybrid Brazilian street music, fusing European melodies with the rhythms of African origin. It was developed in the late 18th century in the big ballrooms of Portuguese colonised Brazil, when European dance music, and especially the polka, was the popular music of the time.
Chef Nimrod Kazoom is the mentor chef of the World Music Cafe kitchen team and brings his extraordinarily ‘tradition meets innovation’ creative cuisine to the bountiful World Music Café banquet. Nimrod trained and worked in Tel Aviv before relocating to Perth several years ago and has since built a massive following for his stunning artistic cuisine.
