The Ladino language became the language of the Jewish diaspora throughout the Mediterranean after the expulsion of the Jews from the territory of present-day Spain in 1492. For Nani (Noam Vazana), an Israeli singer living in the Netherlands, songs in this language are a return to her roots. When she was little, her grandmother sang them to her at home, she herself then forgot these folk melodies of the Sephardic Jews and returned to them after hearing them in Morocco. In 2017, she recorded an album of well-known Sephardic songs called Andalusian Brew, but at the same time she was slowly preparing her big breakthrough project.

The vinyl edition was released in January 2023 under the name Ke Haber and contains – with three exceptions – the singer’s original, i.e. completely new, songs in the ancient Ladino language. After all, the tension between the old and the new flows throughout the album. In addition to the percussion, “conservatively” played guitar, piano or cello, the songs easily accommodate surprise trombone tracks, which, by the way, is brilliantly played – by the singer herself. An excellent example the heartbreaking song Landarico where she composed accompaniment of the song on 4 layers of trombone choral.
