Nani Vazana sings Ladino

Breathing new life into the ancient Spanish-Jewish language, Nani creates a bridge between the past and future with socially relevant lyrics celebrating migration, gender, and female empowerment. Nani performs songs from both albums *Ke Haber* and *Andalusian Brew* for this special performance.

\------------------

“I play Ladino because I see the future when I look at the past.” **Nani Vazana**

As a singer, composer, trombonist and pianist, Nani Vazana’s solo show invites the listeners into a world that is both timeless and modern. Her songs intertwine stories of Nani’s grandmother with present-day narratives, blending the sounds and smells of the marketplaces with raw flamenco-inspired vocals, soulful trombone harmonies, and heart-breaking piano. All this is topped off with electronic tracks from her laptop, creating an immersive elemental soundscape. This show is being toured in venues up to 600 capacity in Europe, USA and Canada.

With her trio, the sound world of fiery Spanish guitar and sweeping Arabic percussion, topped with her infectious stage personality and even some dance moves, Nani brings the show to bigger stages, headlining folk and jazz festivals worldwide, with up to 10,000 capacity, such as the Jazz In The Park Festival, Richmond Folk Festival, Montana Folk Festival, North Carolina Folk Festival, Lotus Festival and more.

***This event will last approximately 1 hour and 40 minutes, including an interval.***
