With a ship’s-horn power voice and a magnetic stage presence, Nani Vazana brings a deeply intimate performance to the Rabbit Box Theater, singing in Ladino (Judeo-Spanish) and weaving together Sephardic musical influences, flamenco drama, and contemporary storytelling. Her songs explore memory, migration, and identity, evoking the sounds of the marketplace and the emotional weight of inherited stories. In a cabaret-style setting like the Rabbit Box, Vazana’s voice, phrasing, and narrative detail unfold with striking immediacy. This Seattle appearance offers a rare opportunity to experience Vazana’s work up close, where the intimacy of the room amplifies both language and emotion. Following her win at LIET International 2024, representing the Netherlands, and performances at venues including the Kennedy Center, London Jazz Festival, and TEDx Amsterdam, Vazana arrives with a bold, expressive sound shaped by vocals, brass, guitar, piano, and percussion. This is an evening designed for deep listening, an immersive concert that invites audiences into the texture, rhythm, and feeling of Ladino song.
