BR brings you the best of Bucharest’s cultural highlights for the weekend ahead. 

PERFORMANCE

like CNDB #1

National Dance Centre Bucharest

9 – 28 February

The National Dance Centre in Bucharest organizes the “like CNDB #1” festival which presents the best contemporary dance pieces of the last few years. Performances start every night from 9 until 28 February at 7:30 pm. Prices start at RON 15 for a single performance ticket or RON 70 for a festival subscription.

Dulce Pontes

February 9, Sala Palatului

Dulce Pontes is usually defined as a world music artist, whose songs contributed to the 1990s revival of the Portuguese urban folk genre called fado. Considered the successor of Amalia Rodrigues, Dulce Pontes has collaborated with José Carreras, Cesária Évora and Andrea Bocelli, but her most notable alliance was probably with the Italian composer Ennio Morricone: in 2003 their Focus album earned a Golden Disk within just 20 days of its launch.
