UDER THE SKY OF SEPHARAD is a proposal of three different concert of Sephardic music in various styles.
Apart from that I porpose a programme of the MAAYAN consort connected with broadly understood Jewish culture and concerts referring to the ancient music from Spain as well as to the tradition of Latin Americal countries.
Welcome!
UNDER THE SKY OF SEFARAD – Sephardic music
LUNAS OLVIDADAS
Sephardic songs in Oriental style
Watch a 9 minute extract from the concert LUNAS OLVIDADAS from X International Festival of Sephardic Music in Cordoba (Spain 2011)
This program refers to the musical tradition of Medieval Spain as well as to the way of performing Sephardic music in the Arabic part of the Mediterranean Sea Basin. The instruments and arrangements of the musical pieces emphasize oriental influences in Sephardic music.
Anna Jagielska-Riveiro: vocal, guitar, lyrics translation, artistic direction Marta Maślanka: santur Patrycja Napierała: percussion instruments Michał Pindakiewicz: guitar Sebastian Wielądek: ney flutes, kawala, duduk
Watch a 8 minute extract from the concert at the Concert Studio “S1” of the Polish Radio in Warsaw, Poland (2010)
Sephardic songs with Klezmer notes
The program Dos Amantes refers to the roots of Sephardic music as well as shows a modern aspect of Sephardic music as a still living tradition. The way the pieces are played is the efect of joining different musical worlds: ancient music, ethno, folk, classical music and jazz.
In 2011 the CD DOS AMANTES recorded live on November 2010 in the Concert Studio “S1” of the Polish Radio in Warsaw was published.
MAAYAN consort:
Anna Jagielska-Riveiro: vocal, guitar, lyrics translation, artistic direction Patrycja Napierała: cajón, udu, darabuka Oliwier Andruszczenko: clarinet Maciej Matysiak: double bass Michał Pindakiewicz: guitar Mateusz Szemraj: oud
Arrangements of Sephardic songs for two guitars evoke the connections of this music with the culture of Spain. The main topic of the concert is love. Various, sometimes very violent emotions are emphasised in singing with ornaments close to ancient vocal practices.
Duo RIVEIRO:
Anna Jagielska-Riveiro: vocal, guitar Michał Pindakiewicz: guitar
It is an exceptional program which shows different aspects of multicentury Jewish musical tradition: from old Hebrew songs, dealing mainly with religious topics, through Sephardic music of secular character to traditional Yiddish repertoire and Israeli songs.
