Long before artists learned how to "grow from the bottom up" with minimal media support, Itzik Kala had already become a towering symbol. Beyond being one of the pillars of Eastern music in Israel, Kala has collaborated with the greatest and best, released dozens of albums, and given us a long and beloved list of unforgettable classics. Through a remarkable career spanning decades, Kala has carved out an almost mythical status in Israeli music. As a true symbol of the city of Jerusalem and recipient of the City's Honored Award, and as someone who embodies in our eyes the very best of the potential beauty of creation that emerges from it, we are thrilled by the opportunity to host this living legend for a concert series that weaves together in melody Kurdistan, Turkey, Greece, and Israel.
Guest Musician: Naor Ben Dror
