'ONE OF THE MOST VIBRANT GENRES IN WORLD MUSIC. YIDDISH MUSIC IS THE NEW ROCK & ROLL.' The Guardian

Yalla! An infectiously entertaining mish-mosh of powerful Yiddish music hall songs and whirling klezmer and Middle Eastern dance tunes.

Marianna Moralis' impassioned vocals lead the party, driving fabulous New York Yiddish theatre songs, old world Yiddish folk songs, and ​​cheerful singalongs; David Mowat (trumpet), Knud Stüwe (guitar) and Simon Leach (percussion) propel the joyous and sizzling arrangements with their impressive playing and enormous sense of fun.

With fantastic music, brilliant audience rapport, and more than a touch of good time showbiz, this is a set guaranteed to raise the spirits. Sababa!

'ENERGETIC AND EXCITING, CHAI FOR ALL COMBINE KLEZMER, YIDDISH FOLK AND JAZZ THROUGHOUT THEIR MUSIC. MAKING ONE FIERCE BREW AS A RESULT. IT'S EMOTIVE, SOULFUL, AND UNLIKE ANYTHING YOU'LL EVER SEE.' Bristol 24/7
