Naguila Mystic Sephardic Chants L'Empreinte Digitale With the emigration of the Sephardic North African Jewish community to Israel, France and Canada in the 1960s, the future of the musical heritage of Moroccan, Algerian and Tunisian Jewry became problematic. This rich Sephardic music is based on the Andalusian (Moorish Spain) musical tradition but is dominated by elements of classical Ottoman (Turkish) music and popular Arabic music. A significant part of this heritage is liturgical music, consisting of the synagogue service and piyyutim (religious poems). According to the North African Jewish religious tradition, the role of music was to protect the integrity of the faith. Using Arabic melodies as vessels was considered kosher as long as the vessels were filled with Jewish content. Pierre-Luc Ben Soussan, who currently resides in France, has worked to preserve this rich heritage. Ben Soussan formed The Naguila Ensemble (violin, oud and percussion) to collect and perform this repertoire. On this CD, he enlisted the considerable vocal talents of Andre Taieb, hazan (liturgical singer) of the Montpellier synagogue in Paris, to perform the piyyutim and Sabbath songs that make up the album. |
