Elana Sasson brings Kurdish and Persian musical traditions into dialogue with contemporary jazz and Mediterranean influences. Drawing on Persian poetry and Kurdish song, she creates music in which tradition and improvisation naturally meet. At the centre is her clear, expressive voice, moving between intimacy and openness.

“[Elana’s] singing is at once unaffected and highly refined... an eloquent and affecting music that lives between worlds in a liminal state of bittersweet yearning” — All About Jazz

Her album 'In Between' explores the spaces between cultures, identities and musical traditions. Traditional melodies and jazz harmony come together in music that feels both intimate and expansive.

Meet the artist: Ivan Laranjeiro

With A Portrayal of the Latin Guitar, the Ivan Laranjeiro Trio presents its debut album. Afro-Cuban and Brazilian music form the foundation, with the nylon-string guitar as the connecting thread. Bass and drums give the music a contemporary sound, blurring the lines between classical guitar, Latin music and jazz.

Familiar rhythms take on a new character through improvisation and the trio’s open approach. The result is music rooted in the rich tradition of the Latin guitar, while sounding distinctly of its time.
