Devoted to the performance of German and Jewish repertoire from the 19th Century and until the present times, and through a passionate research of neglected works and repertoire affected by political events, the ensemble creates a musical experience of the highest professional level, within a social-cultural context. Inspired by Else Lasker-Schueler, whose unique biography addresses both Israel and Germany, the ensemble premiers and celebrates women composers, giving stage to some of the best unknown repertoire of the past and present times.

With its unique energy and sound, Else Ensemble performed all over Germany and Israel, as well as in many European cities, contributing to some of the most important concert-series and venues.

The unique Israeli-Armenian Trio is named after the biblical figure “Noa”, who was one of Zelophehad‘s five opinionated and courageous women who challenged social rules and conventions, and are considered by many to be the first feminists of their times and a role model for gender equality.
Consisting of three virtuoso musicians, all prize-winners of international competitions, Trio Noa offers both brilliant as well as lyrical programs with highlights of the charming repertoire for flute, clarinet and piano.

Trio Shulamit
United by the enthusiasm for song and chamber music, Chisa Tanigaki (soprano), Shelly Ezra (clarinet) and Katharina Schlenker (piano) met in summer 2016 and have been performing since then as “Trio Shulamit“, on different stages in Stuttgart, Frankfurt, Leipzig, Berlin, and most recently at the Music Festival Donau-Oberschwaben.
The trio puts a great emphasis on including in their concert programs masterpieces such as „The Shepherd on the Rock” by Franz Schubert, with less known repertoire, as the transcription of the soprano solo from Gustav Mahler’s 4th Symphony by the Israeli composer Arnon Zimra or five of Erich Kästner’s amusing and enjoyable aphorisms by Hermann Heiss. Furthermore, distinguished composers such as Oded Zehavi have been commissioned to write especially for the trio.
