An amazing week I just had performing and sharing Ladino music and culture with Limmud UK in Birmingham!! From lighting communal hanukah candles and singing Sephardic songs of redemption with Sudanese refugee Mutasim Ali, to teaching hundreds of kids and families new Ladino songs, giving Ladino music workshops to such eager listeners, meeting with representatives of Reconectar and learning about efforts to reach out to thousands of lost Sephardic Jews from hundreds years past to present, singing at the gala with the fab Limmud UK House Band and amazing violinist Lior Kaminetsky, and sharing music with Shir and so many other terrific musicians from across the globe. Thank you to all my Limmud friends old and new for sharing in such an inspiring experience with me!
