Ballads of Love and Betrayal

Sephardic Songs of Morocco, Spain and the Balkans


Judeo-Spanish songs bind Europe, Africa and Asia in a mutual dance - erotic ballads, love songs, stories of last-minute reverses of fortune and chilling tales, with a dizzyingly wide range of musical richesse to accompany them. Joglaresa's style employs echoes of Celtic and Balkan village festivals, medieval organum, North African trance and even jazz in a response to the Sephardic cultural mélange.
