Suzy
After the success of her first and second traditional Ladino (Judeo-Spanish) albums, “Herencia” (“Heritage”, 1998) and “Estos y Munchos” (Many Happy Returns”, 2001), she has created an original Ladino (Judeo Spanish) album, “Aromas y Memorias” (“Aromas & memories”, 2004) together with the famous Ladino (Judeo Spanish) poetess, Margalit Matitiahu. Margalit’s words combined with Suzy’s music and voice have created a very rare album, since most of the work found in this genre is traditional.Suzy has managed to build a steady career over the last sixteen years and has been recognized as a successful reviver of her own ancestors Sepharadic Jewish music and tradition. She has performed in various countries such as the U.S.A, Turkey, Georgia, Israel, Hungary and songs taken from her albums were included in dozens of compilations all over the world beside other leading World Music artists. Suzy’s unique voice and singing in different languages is also featured in the special meditation CD “Kwan Se Om”. Her single in Hebrew “Tishkah”, originally in Turkish “Unut Sevme Beni” has been released in Israel. The song “Ahava Asura” (Forbidden Love) also in Hebrew, to which she has written the words, is still amongst the most popular and most played songs in Israel since 1998. Suzy stops at nothing, she has also shown acting talent by participating in a few prizes – winning educational movies.Languages are no barrier to Suzy’s ability to express her complex and interesting cultural background.
