Elana Sasson has just released her second album In Between. With Producer/Pianist/Composer Santiago Bertel and a great band of people from around the world. This music brings together Elana’s family’s Kurdish and Persian musical traditions, with traditional music from the native countries of the band members.

Elana and Santiago join Baruch in a discussion about this record, the inspirations and the synergy that occurred making this album.

The incredible musicians on this album are also immigrants from different lands, each carrying the weight and beauty of multiple homes. Through music, our worlds intertwine, creating a shared space beyond borders. – Elana Sasson

The musicians are Elana Sasson vocals, Santiago Bertel piano, Manos Stratis double bass, Victor Goldschmidt drums, and featuring Matthieu Saglio cello, Kaveh Sarvarian ney and tombak, and Miron Rafajlovic trumpet.
