Ladino singer to come to Ankara

ANKARA

Seville-based Ladino singer, Mor Karbasi, will be in Ankara for a concert for the first time on Jan. 21.

Born in 1986 in Jerusalem, Karbasi burst onto the global world music scene in 2008 with the release of her first album “The Beauty and the Sea.”

Her music is influenced by several cultures, though mainly by her Jewish heritage as well as Persian, Moroccan and Spanish influences. Her musical influences included such great talents as Um Kulthum, Amalia Rodrigues, Madre Deus, and Mercedes Sosa.

Karbasi’s performances include Tours of Europe and the U.S., including appearances on London’s Trafalgar Square open air stage, festival performances, and TV and radio broadcasts on National French TV and BBC radio.

After her second album “Daughter of the Spring,” Karbasi released her latest album “La Tsadika” (The Ballad for Sol) in 2013.

She will be on the stage at ODTÜ KKM. Tickets are available at Biletix.
