Event Description

Darya Mosenzon is a pianist and composer specializing in North African music. She began playing the piano and composing at a young age and studied classical music throughout her childhood, but was drawn since adolescence to other genres of music as well, culminating in her choice to pursue Moroccan and Algerian music. Darya will present a solo piano recital featuring original and traditional North African music, infused with a classical-Jazzy twist. This intimate acoustic experience will blend the evocative rhythms of the Maghreb with soulful melodies, culminating in a vibrant instrumental dance party. As Haaretz aptly described, her performance is “a blend of meticulous restraint and exhilarating passion.”
