About Viatorum: Prone to wander…A world in commotion; traversing migratory paths that cross the globe; narrowing the gulfs that divide; intuiting the common rhythms that pulse sympathetically with our shared humanity. These are the reverberant muses at the heart of Viatorum. Formed in the rich cultural mosaic of San Antonio, Texas, the members of Viatorum share a passion for music that grooves, uplifts, moves the spirit, and unites. Imagine a jam session swirling in Middle Eastern modes, Western counterpoint, Romani fervor, driving rhythms, and Andalusian flair—and you will begin to understand the musical ambition of Viatorum. Based on their collective study of and training in a variety of musical traditions, their music endeavors to spread the infectious joy that it continually brings to them.
About Karavan: Karen Barbee Adkisson founded Karavan Studio in 1988 and has operated the studio in San Antonio, Texas ever since. Karavan has developed a teaching methodology for this dance form based on technical precision, soulful innovation, and cultural respect.
Since 2013, Karen’s passion project has been “Project Band” – the one-of-a-kind curriculum that she developed out of her decades of experience working with live Arab music.”
