Nesiya

Nesiya, which means "journey" in Hebrew and Yiddish, reflects the personal, musical and spiritual journeys of its members. The ensemble, consisting of Sveta Kundish (vocals), Marcus Rust (trumpet), Daniel Stawinski (piano), Tim Kleinsorge (bass) and Martin Krümmling (drums), weaves a tapestry of music that transcends borders.

The musicians of Nesiya create a unique blend of different sounds from the world of jazz and improvised music, which merge with the deeply felt spirit of traditional and modern songs in Yiddish and Hebrew.

Nesiya's music is a journey - not only into the distance, but also into the depths. Her concerts invite the listener into a realm where the traditional and the contemporary meet and where personal stories intertwine with universal themes. Nesiya opens up a heartfelt world of sound that is both intimate and encompassing.

Noanda

In NOANDA, the different musical and cultural backgrounds of the musicians engage in a dialogue, creating a unique musical space where everyone feels at home. Their original songs seamlessly blend jazz, soul, Arabic music and the universal language of pop, all charged with the dynamic energy of the metropolitan city of Berlin. NOANDA's sound is both urban and traditional - fresh and unheard, yet deeply familiar. The name NOANDA is a testament to the band’s sound and concept: it is a made up word that does not exist in any language but can be understood and doesn’t sound foreign in any language. Just like their music, NOANDA’s name embodies the universal nature of their art, inviting listeners from all backgrounds.
