The Amos Hoffman & Noam Lemish Quartet offers an inspired blend of jazz and Jewish folk melodies. For years, Amos and Noam have been collecting Jewish melodies from different parts of the world including Kurdish, Yemenite, Moroccan, Ladino, Russian and Israeli songs. The quartet's lyrical and vibrant reimaginings of beloved Jewish melodies have been captivating audiences all across North America. For this concert in Healdsburg, the group will be joined by multi-instrumentalist and founding member of the American jazz group Oregon, Paul McCandless.

Their performance in Healdsburg will include selections from Pardes and from their forthcoming second album, Red Sky, slated to be released in fall 2024 with JOJO Records. Red Sky builds on the work presented in Pardes featuring fresh jazz arrangements to pieces that originate from Jewish communities in the Middle East and North Africa while at the same time showcasing brand new original compositions that integrate a varied and compelling musical landscape: from jazz and Brazilian grooves to klezmer infused odd meteres and Arab classical forms. The result is a joyous, uplifting celebration.
