Nani Vazana

With a ship’s-horn power voice & irresistible stage presence, the Eurovision for minority languages winner, Nani Vazana breathes life into the endangered Ladino Language. Nani heard Ladino from her Moroccan grandmother in hiding, as her father forbade the language at home. Her songwriting fuses Sephardic fairytales with contemporary storytelling and the sounds of the marketplace with Flamenco drama.

Nani captures the spirit of the ancient, matriarchal Ladino language & propels it into the future w/ socially pertinent lyrics celebrating migration, gender & female empowerment. The soundscape captures the sounds & smells of the marketplace and fuses them with raw, flamenco like vocals, soft choral trombone, mariachi guitar & percussion & piano.
