The Rose Ensemble: Land of Three Faiths (medieval concert)

Featuring ancient instruments and musical ideas from Arabic and European traditions, this entertaining and enlightening program is steeped in the Medieval history of the three Abrahamic faiths, achieving a perfect balance of edgy improvisation, exotic vocal styles, and ancient traditions. Laments of the Sephardic Jews mingle with Arab-Andalusian dances and Spanish court songs, while rhythmic cantigas, Hebrew cantillation, and Gregorian chant meet the mystical world of Sufi poetry.
