A Gypsy singer and dancer of Kalderash origin, Marcela Cisarova trained for two years at the Romathan school in Slovakia, the only public theater founded by Europe’s Roma community.
After arriving in France, she collaborated with choreographer Petia Iourtchenko and joined her company: Romano Atmo. A few years later, Marcela took off and helped create the Terne Roma company, dedicated to promoting Gypsy dance.In 2014, she met a guitarist named Benny, already a member of the group Aalma Dili. With him, Marcela opens a new chapter in the development of her career: this is where the MARCELA adventure begins.
She is a Gypsy, and her musicians are “gadjés”. But they all share a love of music, which they make up for with their own unique backgrounds. Surrounded by her new family, Marcela sings of exile, recounts her uprooting and makes her misfortunes dance with her powerful voice enveloped in Slavic sweetness and melancholy. Together, they offer a powerful reflection on cultural diversity and the need to live united despite our differences.
