Description

Yamma Ensemble brings to the forefront an original Hebrew music alongside early traditional materials.

Insisting on acoustic instruments, the ensemble integrates music elements from Middle East with Western music forms. Combining melismatic riches of the Eastern Maqam and the charming irregular rhythms, they explore the territory of free improvisation. The ensemble stays true to the character of Middle East region in which the musicians were born and raised.
