“Irresistible sound, music that defies any musical genres” John Osborne, JAZZ FM
Following on from the sold-out 2022 Synagogue Nights show, Noga Ritter Trio return to Manchester with a newly released album. With songs sung in both Hebrew and English, Noga weaves intimate and personal stories into a compelling narrative of social-global issues. Her performances are passionate and energetic, getting any audience to dance and join in on her soulful journey!
Her debut solo album “Ima”, released in May 2023, features 14 incredible musicians, including the award-winning artists Seckou Keita on Kora, Byron Wallen on trumpet, Tony Kofi on saxophone and produced by Liran Donin. Imagine soaring trumpet solos over Gnawa grooves, Jewish melodies backed with Senegalese Sabar drums and blissful kora (west African harp) improvising alongside Israeli jazz piano subtleties. These are just some of the colours Noga used to paint her musical stories in this remarkable body of work!
Come listen to Noga’s new songs, tracing influences from her upbringing, travels and encounters and sing-along to the firm favourites. Expect an electric show and get moving to these irresistible sounds!
