Divahn on Tour
"This all-female ensemble infuse traditional songs with sophisticated harmonies using tabla, cello, rabel, doumbek, and vocals in Hebrew, Judeo-Spanish, Persian, Arabic, Aramaic and Turkish creating a beautiful lyricism through an intense rhythmic drive. Divahn, a word common to Hebrew, Persian, and Arabic, means a collection of songs or poetry. Through its music, Divahn seeks to underscore common ground shared between diverse Middle Eastern cultures and religions."
