Join us for a celebration of the music of 21st century London!
Celebrated and award winning Senegalese kora player Kadialy Kouyate and the UK’s most prominent Klezmer Accordionist Josh Middleton (Don Kipper) perform a unique and new collaboration.
This intercultural journey will bring together the Griot traditions of West Africa and the living heritage of Ashkenazi Klezmer to create a new co-territoriality, for a 21st Century London, where Kora meets Klezmer.
Israeli singer songwriter, celebrated vocalist and dancer Noga Ritter will bring her quartet of musicians from around the world. They will deliver her unique fusion of Hebrew Jazz and global grooves.
She released her album 'IMA' last may to great reviews. Her album fuses soaring trumpet solos over Gnawa grooves, Jewish melodies backed with Senegalese sabar drums and blissful kora improvising alongside subtle Israeli jazz piano.
At the end of the night both acts will come together to for a true collaborative celebration!
Presented in partnership with the Jewish Music Institute.
