Ivan Dalia live in New York

Experience Ivan Dalia live on August 27th

Ivan Dalia is scheduled to perform at Under St Marks Theater in New York City on August 27, 2026. Dalia’s musical style blends elements of Balkan brass band traditions with jazz improvisation and electronic music production. His compositions often feature complex rhythms, virtuosic clarinet playing—his primary instrument—and a dynamic range encompassing both energetic dance sections and more introspective melodic passages. He frequently incorporates field recordings and samples from his travels, particularly from the Balkans, into his work.

Under St Marks Theater, located in the East Village of Manhattan, has a long history as a significant venue for off-off-Broadway theater, poetry readings, music performances, and experimental art since its establishment in 1975. Originally built as a settlement house in 1928 named the Settler House, it was intended to serve the local immigrant community. The space underwent renovations and transitioned into an arts venue during the 1970s becoming a hub for emerging artists and counter-cultural expression. It's known for its intimate setting and commitment to showcasing diverse and unconventional work. The theater continues to operate as a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting independent artists.
