… ABOUT GERARD EDERY
"Edery and his band are among the best interpreters of Sephardic Music in the business."
—THE JEWISH WEEK
"…Gerard Edery, a master of Sephardic song..."
—NEW YORK TIMES
"A one-man Sephardic music industry. He always seems to be working on something new."
—Alexander Gelfand, THE FORWARD
"His utter ease is more likely the product of the same self-assurance and relaxation that make him comfortable singing in a dozen different languages, playing guitar in a multitude of styles and negotiating more than a half-millennium's worth of Sephardic cultural history."
—George Robinson, JEWISH WEEK
"A cultural powerhouse", GERARD EDERY, "juggles musical roles with almost surreal ease"
—SEATTLE JEWISH TRANSCRIPT AND THE NEW YORK JEWISH WEEK
&hellip ABOUT "SPIRIT OF SEPHARAD"
"Edery has assembled what is probably the strongest ensemble of musicians in his lengthy and highly productive career…[the songs] have to be considered among the very best things Edery has done. 'Adir Hu' is downright electrifying…The overall production is by far the most complicated and multifarious he has attempted. The result is an appropriately dense, textured look at a densely textured culture."
—George Robinson, JEWISH WEEK
… ABOUT "TWO FAITHS, ONE VOICE"
"An ecumenical celebration that honors both Christianity and Judaism!"
—The editors, MANN ABOUT TOWN
"A very exciting recording… remarkable material!…indeed it was difficult to determine whether the melodies came from Jewish or Christian sources. Both Edery and Krupoves are compelling performers and accomplished musicians."
—Irene Backalenick, ALL ABOUT JEWISH THEATRE,
JEWISH POST & OPINION
JEWISH POST & OPINION
"With the great Lithuanian ethnomusicologist, Yiddishist and singer Maria Krupoves, Edery embarked on a global series of concerts. (…) If audience reaction is any indicator, the musical collaborators have succeeded in this endeavor, with huge ovations after every song."
—George Robinson, JEWISH WEEK
