About this concert
Vocal: Yael Badash
Strings: Thomas Moked Blum
Die jüdische-sepharadische Vokal- Artistin Yael Badash, in siebter Generation Mitglied einer sepharadisch-jüdischen Familie, wurde in Israel geboren und ist Musikerin, Gründerin und Leadsängerin der Electro-Acoustic Folk Band “Baladino”.
Sie hat sich in der Ladino-Tradition zu einer frischen und international anerkannten
Stimme entwickelt. Durch ihre umfangreichen Auftritte in ganz Europa, Asien und
Nordamerika öffnet sie die alten Melodien für moderne Ohren. Von der Chicago Tribune
als “Unvergessliche, ausdrucksstarke Stimme, eine Virtuosin ihrer raren Kunst”
bezeichnet, wurzelt ihr improvisatorischer Gesangsstil tief in ihrem eigenen multikulturellen
Erbe mit Einflüssen westlicher, türkischer und nordafrikanischer Music. Durch ihre
Ausbildung im zeitgenössischen Theater überschreitet sie diese selten gesprochene
Ladino- Sprache, die aus das 15. Jahrhundert zurückgeht, um die reiche Oralgeschichte
zeitloser Lieder zu entdecken.
Yael gewann auch verschiedene Preise und Auszeichnungen, u.a.den ersten Preis beim
internationalen “Festiladino”.
Yael trat dem jugoslawischen Komponisten Goran Bregovic als Solist für „My Heart Has
Become Tolerant“ bei, ein Projekt, das vom Festival für geistliche Musik in St. Denis in
Auftrag gegeben wurde. 2016 veröffentlichte sie in Israel das von ihm arrangierte Album
Koferi, das aus hebräischen Bregovic-Liedern bestand.

Yael Badash Biography
Bringing ancient melodies to modern ears through her extensive performances across Europe, Asia and the US, Israeli Vocal-artist Yael Badash has emerged as a fresh voice in the Ladino (Judeo-Spanish) tradition.
Hailed as "Hauntingly pure and expressive voice, a virtuoso of her rarefied art" by Chicago Tribune, her improvisatory vocal style is deeply rooted in her own multi-cultural heritage, with influences from Western, Turkish and North African music. Through her training in contemporary theatre, she transcends this rarely spoken language to unearth the rich oral history steeped in these timeless songs.
Yael is the lead vocalist of the Mediterranean Electro-acoustic Folk band BALADINO, with whom she released its first album, Dos Amantes, to international acclaim. The group released its second album, Nedudim, with the Chicago-based Fifth House Ensemble and Grammy-winning producer Steve Rodby on Cedille Records in 2016.
A two-time first prize-winner at Festiladino, the International Festival for Original Ladino Songs, Yael joined Yugoslav powerhouse Goran Bregovic as a soloist for “My Heart Has Become Tolerant,” a project commissioned by the Festival of Sacred Music of St. Denis. In 2016 she released in Israel the album Koferi which was made of Bregovic songs in Hebrew, arranged by him.
