Desert Roots: Middle-Eastern Jewish Music – Concert and Presentation

Hosted By: Qesher

Dror will take Qesher on a beautiful journey to the Middle East and North Africa from the 10th century until today, through songs of spirit and awe, songs of thanks and songs of love and hope. Singing and chanting Jewish songs from Yemen, Morocco, Tunisia and Turkey in Hebrew, Arabic, Aramaic, and Ladino, explore the poetry of multicultural attitudes and experiences. Dror will accompany his singing with a variety of percussion instruments including a Doumbek (an hourglass Middle Eastern drum also known as Tabla or Darbuka) Tar, Duff & Bendir (a Mideastern & North African Frame drums) a Riq (Mideastern tambourine), Cajon (box drum) bells, shakers and rattles.

Host

Qesher

There are Jewish communities all around the globe with their own unique history, culture, places, and most of all, people and stories. All of them different, but sharing so much. The aim of Qesher is to connect these different Jewish traditions, not just to know of each other, but to learn about each other. We believe that there is great value in creating a deeper understanding within the Jewish world and exploring Jewish experiences and identities in all their diversity.
