“Pensive, compassionate...a voice full of tenderness.”
The New York Times

Performing a soulful blend of traditional folk and pop music, Chava Alberstein is Israel’s most accomplished singer. Her nearly 50 recordings include numerous gold and platinum records. From love songs to defiant songs about peace and oppression to melancholy songs about loss and poverty, Alberstein’s music is laden with the bittersweet tension between the national and the universal.
