The young diva of Moroccan Judeo-Arabic LALA Tamar breathes vibrant new life into Sephardic, Flamenco and Middle Eastern musics. She is a collector of lost stories and women’s song in Haquetia, Moroccan Ladino. Accompanied by the virtuoso guitar of Ofer Ronen, the duo masterfully weaves an evening of tenderness and depth, enchanting listeners into a ritual that celebrates the roots of three cultures in one.
Famous on the streets of Marrakech, LALA’s videos have collected millions of hits. Coming off a sold out debut at Lincoln Center, the singer is an emergent force, delighting new and old friends across the globe. An evening with Duo Andalus is a pure gift, an unforgettable sweetness.
