Villa Palagonia Music Duo: Allison Scola and Joe Ravo
Villa Palagonia performed in November 2017 at the NIAF Annual Gala “Expo Italiana.” NIAF is the National Italian American Foundation, which celebrated the region of Sicily during the festive weekend.

Villa Palagonia has set out on the “Left Bank,” as we like to call our new home in Englewood, New Jersey. We are thrilled to join many of our friends on the west side of the Hudson, yet still remaining true to our New York City roots with frequent visits for work and play in the City.

As we settle in to our new headquarters, we are purposefully keeping our schedule less demanding for a few months, but we are certainly keeping our toes in the action. We have a few appearances in spring 2018, that we hope you’ll join us for!


March 4: On Hootenanny Cafe Radio Show on WTBQ with Jon Stein

In early March we’ll be on Hootenanny Cafe. You can tune in to hear a set of Villa Palagonia on the radio!

When: Sunday, March 4 at 9:00 PM – 10:30 PM
Where: WTBQ or at TuneIn Radio.


March 18: St. Joseph’s Day with Experience Sicily at Cacio e Vino

Mid-March, we’ll be getting you all singing for St. Joseph’s Day at Cacio e Vino with Experience Sicily. The afternoon, which features a traditional Saint Joseph’s Day Sicilian feast, will be great fun. Reserve your spot at Eventbrite!

May 1: A World of Women’s Voices Presented by the College Club of Northern New Jersey

College Club of Northern New Jersey
Luncheon and Meeting with Concert
Details

A World of Women’s Voices
Woman’s Club of Ridgewood, 12 Noon
The Woman’s Club of Ridgewood
215 W. Ridgewood Ave.
Ridgewood, NJ

Contact the College Club of Northern New Jersey about attending at ccpresident@gmail.com.

A World of Women’s Voices is a powerful, unique, collaborative performance featuring three artists — Sharon Goldman, Bev Grant and duo Villa Palagonia — who celebrate the power of women’s stories from around the world, from Italian folk tales and biblical stories to African women, New York immigrant history (including the Triangle Fire), personal/childhood narratives and labor movement anthems.

We are offered an enriching personal and community experience not only through the stories told in the songs — which the artists knit together by illustrating how, even with our different backgrounds, we all are essentially connected — but also through encouraging us to sing and, in some cases, dance along!


June 24: On Hootenanny Cafe Radio Show on WTBQ with Jon Stein

On Sunday, June 24 we’ll be live on Hootenanny Cafe. You can tune in to hear an entire broadcast co-hosted by Villa Palagonia with in-studio performances.

When: Sunday, June 24 at 9:00 PM – 10:30 PM
Where: WTBQ or at TuneIn Radio.
