Michelle Alany is an internationally touring violinist & vocalist, a dynamic performer & ambassador of world folk traditions. She specializes in soulful Sephardic, Mediterranean & Eastern European-inspired music, as well as originals, drawing on rich folk and classical traditions. Her remarkable playing is tinged with the tarab of her Iraqi roots combined with fiery Ashkenazic melodies, and the combination that practically explodes from her violin is pure alchemy. Sure, she'll play Balkan music too, she'll play originals, and what's more she'll play the roof off the joint.
