4.0 out of 5 stars A Song of David: Music to my heart, December 31, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Song of David: Music of the Sephardim and Reanaissance Spain (Audio CD)

I own and enjoy several other CDs of Sephardic music, but this one is my favorite. The melodies are poignant, lively and celebratory. I don't speak Spanish, but to listen and suddenly hear familiar Hebrew phrases and words emerge makes me feel connected to the Jewish communities that flourished in Spain a thousand years ago.

My only complaint is that the lyrics as sung don't always match with the lyrics as printed. Syllables and letters seem to be missing from the printed version.

I initially bought this in a retail store some years ago. As a student of Spanish, I'm fascinated with the Ladino dialect. And as a music lover, I enjoy the lilting tunes echoing from the past. I've now ordered 5 or 6 additional copies online as gifts! Every recipient has been thrilled with it.
