Sefarad: Music of the Jews of Spain, Portugal and Their Diaspora
Hosted By: Qesher
Qesher presents a musical journey exploring Sefarad, a term encompassing both the geographic regions of Spain and Portugal and the extensive Sephardic diaspora. The program traverses from medieval Jewish life in Spain and Portugal to the diaspora in Morocco and the eastern Mediterranean, including former Ottoman territories. Featuring a mix of live performances and archival recordings, the event showcases old ballads, wedding songs, Jewish calendar cycle tunes, and popular love songs, accompanied by photos and stories of the Sephardim who preserved these traditions.
