INFO: Founded by American-Israeli producer Diwon, the Sephardic Music Festival showcases the latest Mizrahi, Yemenite, and Ladino talent from around the world. Selections range from traditional Sephardic folk songs to hip hop, electro, and dance music. Album tracks incorporate Jewish liturgical and ceremonial texts, Sabbath songs, and classic love poems, as well as original compositions inspired by traditional themes. Popular perceptions of Jews and Jewish culture are dominated by the Ashkenazi experience, including klezmer and Yiddish, which leaves out a great deal of Jewish creativity. A whole other world of Jewish culture and inspiration can be traced to the Jewish communities of North Africa, the Middle East, and Central Asia. Whether live or on CD, the Sephardic Music Festival presents a tapestry of harmonies, rhythms, and motifs as rich, vibrant, and diverse as the Jewish world itself.
