Anne Paceo (FR) - Circles

Yellow Submarine, 13 HaRekhavim St. Talpiyot, Jerusalem

More details

An award-winning percussionist who, in a short period of time, became one of the leaders of France's new jazz scene thanks to her distinct style and sound, an original composer in constant dialogue with diverse musical genres, and a charismatic and creative leader of the ensemble that performs at renowned festivals around the world.

Paceo soared to recognition in 2009, when winning the title The discovery of the year, in the European Django D'or Prix competition by the French Academy du Jazz . Two years later, her debut album "Triphase" won the French equivalent of the Grammy Awards (Victoire De la Musique).

But, as the first female drummer to graduate from the jazz department of Paris' National Conservatoire, Anne Paceo has never stopped smashing glass ceilings.

She began her musical career at the age of 19 and has since accompanied legends such as pianist Alain Jean-Marie, accordionist Marcel Azzola, pianist and composer Michel Legrand, bassist Charlie Haden, saxophonist Archie Shepp, Jazz fusion pioneer John McLaughlin, soul jazz organist and singer Rhoda Scott , guitarist Christian Escoudé, keyboardist Cheick Tidiane Seck, and singers China Moses, Melissa Laveaux, and many others.

As an ensemble leader, her career took off quickly, with seven successful albums and two EPs, as well as performances on prestigious stages stretching from the Zenith in Paris to the Blue Note in Tokyo.

Her most recent acoustic album, S.H.A.M.A.N.E.S., released in 2022 and inspired by shamanic rituals and meditative rhythms, tops the French jazz album sales chart.

She was named a Knight of the Order of the Arts last year, the highest honor bestowed on artists for their contributions to French culture.

Paceo's first visit to Israel is with Circles, a poetic and melodic album that touches on nature's cycles and the never-ending motion of time.

It's a dream-like musical journey that defies categorization and moves you to new places, with influences ranging from electro jazz to sacred poetry, a vortex of free spirit, poetics, and electrifying energy. Paceo creates a harmonious world on stage through a unique alchemy, a dialogue between equals, and musicians who make the heart race.

“Jazz is a way of expression, it’s about freedom, and play with what is in your soul at one moment” Anne Paceo

Tamar Shrek - Alternate Take

Yellow Submarine, 13 HaRekhavim St. Talpiyot, Jerusalem

More details

They were brilliant songwriters and performers who, for various reasons, did not make it to the audience and so they stopped creating. Each has an intriguing story to tell. Tamar Shrek, the acclaimed singer and arranger, leads the audience through the twists and turns of the stories of extraordinary female musicians who began to pave a path for themselves that was interrupted by a major tear-up, and they and their work went unnoticed. In a debut production created at the festival's invitation, the creators and songs will be given the attention they deserve on the festival stage. A surprising and rich orchestration honors and opens a window to the world of a multi-style ensemble of musicians, reminding us that it is never too late to discover great musicians. Among the creators was Karen Dalton, an American folk blues singer who was a hidden treasure and full of charm in the sixties, released two albums, became addicted to alcohol and drugs, and died at the age of 55 from AIDS-related complications. Bob Dylan, who accompanied her on the harmonica in cafes in New York's Greenwich Village, described her as his favorite singer at the time. "She sings like Billie Holiday and plays guitar like Jimmy Reed," he wrote. Eva Cassidy, a singer, guitarist, and rare musical artist who died at the age of 33 from skin cancer, will also be honorably remembered. Cassidy primarily sang covers that she has made her own through her unique interpretation. "There's a magical quality to her voice that's hard to define," Sting said of her cover of Fields Of Gold, which she recorded in her final year of life. Cassidy was not appreciated during her lifetime, but after her death, nine compilation albums of her songs were released and sold millions of copies. And then there's Judee Sill, a forgotten figure from the early 1970s folk-rock scene and one of the first female musicians signed to David Geffen's legendary Asylum Records, home to legends like Joni Mitchell, Jackson Browne, Tom Waits, and Dylan. Sill, a multi-instrumentalist with a soft and captivating voice, struggled with childhood violence and family crises, as well as drug addiction in her youth. The music bug bit her in a juvenile detention center, and it appeared that her dream was about to come true. After two critically acclaimed albums on Geffen's label, she experienced a devastating commercial failure, resulting in a whirlwind of rejection and depression, domestic violence, and a series of physical injuries, which drew her back to drugs and eventually led to her death at the age of 35.

Lihi Haruvi Quintet In tribute to Elvira "Vi" Redd

Yellow Submarine, 13 HaRekhavim St. Talpiyot, Jerusalem

More details

The festival has invited Israeli saxophonist Lihi Haruvi, one of the original voices in the contemporary jazz scene, to return to her homeland with a tribute show to Vi Redd, a groundbreaking musician, an inspiring singer, and a revolutionary educator. She opens doorway into the rich musical world of Vi Red, to the rough tones and blues that defined her, in a show dedicated to the pioneer of the American saxophone and to mark 95 years of work that paved the way for many women after her. At a time when the jazz scene was completely dominated by male musicians and gender norms shaped and determined the path of female musicians who were excluded from the mainstream discourse in jazz, Redd was one of the first women to make their way to the center of the stage as performers and bandleaders. She was the first woman to lead a band at a jazz festival in the United States, and the first woodwind player in jazz history to establish herself as a great soloist, performing with legends such as Earl Haynes, Dexter Gordon, Max Roach, Count Basie, and Dizzy Gillespie. Even though the reviews praised her, they weren't overlooking her gender. "A singer who plays the saxophone as well as, if not better than, many male musicians," the press declared upon her breakthrough. In jazz circles in the 1960s and 1970s, the dominant stereotypical dichotomy was clear: men played, women sang. But Red refused to give up. She only released two albums, Bird Call (1962) and Lady Soul (1963), on which she sings and plays with sensitivity, elegance, power, and courage. Her performances decreased in the 1970s, and she devoted her time to teaching and musical education. Haruvi, a saxophonist, composer, and educator, teaches at some of the world's top institutions, including Berklee, MIT, and the New England Conservatory of Music. She has worked with Grammy Award winners and leading musicians such as pianist Danilo Pérez, Brazilian jazz singer Luciana Souza, drummer Terri Lyne Carrington, saxophonists George Garzone, Joe Lovano, and Dave Liebman, trumpeter Greg Hopkins, and bassist John Patitucci. In Israel, she collaborated with David Broza and Arkadi Duchin, among others. Haruvi has led ensembles at the Monterey Jazz Festival, the Newport Jazz Festival, UNESCO International Jazz Day, the Red Sea Jazz Festival, and other jazz festivals in Panama, Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic, Chile, Ireland, England, and France. The Lihi Haruvi quintet's debut album was released in 2018. She is currently working on a new album.

We recommend getting here early so you can grab a seat.

The Yellow Submarine (13 HaRekhavim St.) is the location of the evening performances on 31.5 + 1.6 and the morning/afternoon performances on 3.6.

The Mazkeka bar (3 Shushan St.) in Jerusalem will host the evening concerts on June 2.

Each show's detailed start and end times will be announced soon.

Are the performances suitable for kids?

In a word, yeah.

However, it truly depends on whether your child is a metalhead or more of a geeky type.

Does she jump on the bed until midnight or fall asleep at seven o'clock?

since all of this is bewildering- we agreed on a unique performance for kids this year!

Check it out on Saturday morning.
