The Spirit of Sepharad: Casbah to Caliphate

admin321 — Sat, 01 Jun 2013 05:01:34 +0000

Performed by The Spirit of Sepharad A soul-stirring musical journey, “Spirit of Sepharad: Casbah to Caliphate” traces the unique migration of Sephardic music from medieval Spain, across North Africa, to the Middle East. Combining music, narration, dance and illuminating projections, this dynamic mixed-media performance brings to life all the rich cultural strains that influenced Sephardic/Mizrahi Jews. Featuring an array of virtuoso musicians from multiple disciplines, the program includes songs of secular and liturgical origin, spanning many centuries to the present and many continents from Ancient Persia (present day Afghanistan and Iran), Spain, Morocco, Algeria, Greece, Syria, Turkey, The Balkans, Jerusalem and Kurdistan (then, as now, part of Iran, Turkey and Iraq). The musical story of a rich cultural heritage that synthesizes diverse influences, “Spirit of Sepharad” is a celebration of the Sephardic/Mizrahi experience that invites the possibility of coexistence, tolerance, respect and peace among all peoples. Ensemble: Gerard Edery ~ vocals, guitar Amir Vahab ~ saz, vocals, frame drum Ara Dinkjian ~ oud Glenn Velez ~ percussion Barbara Martinez ~ vocals, choreography, dance
