"Hagiga is a group that takes the freedom to play what they feel like, making the fun and craftsmanship splash!"
MUSIC FRAMES (NETHERLANDS)

Home: Welcome

Hagiga in Hebrew means “celebration” and in our music we celebrate the cultural divergence of our Israeli heritage. Hagiga is inspired by the variety of musical flavors and colors of the “Israeli soundtrack”. Our compositions cross musical genres influenced by swing, maroccan, funk and Brazilian backgrounds. It is this unique "celebration” of original Israeli jazz that is Hagiga.

Dream I Dream

Hagiga in Hebrew means "celebration," and in saxophonist Alon Farber's music for his 25-year-old ensemble, he celebrates the cultural divergence of his Israeli heritage through a heady melding of Swing, Moroccan, Funk and Brazilian backgrounds. For his third Origin release, Farber focused on the dream state, where the process of writing new music begins for him-imagining the development of an idea, the recording of it and then listening back, before ever putting notes on paper. Musings on Charles Mingus delivered "Mingus Dream," "Cookies" was inspired by a Thelonious Monk-esque world, and "The Bartok Blues" hails from a land Bela Bartok may or may not recognize. With pianist Katia Toobool, bassist Assaf Hakimi, and drummer Yonatan Rosen, Farber's Hagiga is free and expressive, original and energetic, all within a creative framework 25 years in the making.
