We are ‘Scupriri’, a Sicilian folk ensemble based in Sydney. Across the millennia, Sicily has been occupied by major empires of the region. The legacy of these conquests is a rich and diverse culture experienced through folk songs, stories and language
Meaning ‘discovery’ in Sicilian, Scupriri performs traditional Sicilian folk music and shares traditional Sicilian instruments such as the Maranzano and Tamburello. We are a 7 piece band of vocals, violin, double bass, accordion, guitar and percussion.
Come discover this culture with us. It’s an experience not to be missed!
