Mama Zehyerei: Etti Ankri in a Tunisian concert

Many ancient treasures lie hidden in the Tunisian Jewish tradition. Sparks of a rich and multifaceted tradition nestle in its foods, customs, dress, and especially its music.These treasures accompanied Etti Ankri in her childhood, when she grew up against the background of Tunisian melodies and rhythms, thanks to her grandmother, Mama Zehyerei, born in Djerba. Now she returns to these sounds, accompanied by an ensemble of seven musicians, who combine traditional and contemporary music with classic Tunisian rhythms and ethno-jazz beats.

*The concert was first presented at the Oud Festival.

Admission: NIS 60, students: NIS 30

In the BEIT AVI CHAI courtyard. Warm attire recommended.
