Arcana Nomadica is a collective of musicians and artists led by violinist Luanne Homzy, taking audiences on a journey through time with rich folk and Gypsy-Romani music from Europe and the Americas. A performance may travel from a French waltz to a Hungarian csárdás, a Romanian hora, a Russian romance and dance, or an Argentinian tango—perhaps even a Disney tune in disguise—alongside jazz, classical, and beloved songs. The trio’s passion is to weave a common thread through these traditions, evoking the wonder, soul, passion, and beauty of music across cultures.

Arcana Nomadica, “traveling secret,” pays homage to the Romani musicians who journeyed across the globe after leaving India roughly fifteen hundred years ago. Traditionally nomadic, they absorbed the music of the lands where they settled, transforming it with their own unmistakable voice, always playing directly from the heart. Their traditions were passed down through generations, often orally rather than in written form. The musicians of Arcana Nomadica are deeply honored to have studied with and performed alongside these masters, and are devoted to helping keep this extraordinary tradition alive, and to introduce it to new audiences.
