Looking for some recos on traditional Sephardic music

[scott wurcer]

I have heard there are some compilations out there. I'm interested in real traditional music not recent "world music" interpretations.

Yea, just before I posted, the purchase links seem to all be dead. I remember sampling a 5 CD collection following the music through North Africa to Spain and now I can't find it.

Come over and I'll sing you some.

Huh? :???: I thought you was Ashkenaz.

50:50. My father was Sephardic, mother was Ashkenazi.

I shouldn't known! Never could figure out why I liked you, that might be a clue. 😛

My wife says the same thing.

I suppose you have seen:
Sephardic: Music, CDs, videos (page 1 of 9) - only some seems traditional
Sephardic Song in Medieval Style - A discography

I don't know if this is what you are looking for:

Thanks I found the lable that I lost. It was Celestial Harmonies and they have several collections. I would love to hear a few of those transfers from 78's. Yazoo has a 1 CD collection but it is OOP and none on ebay.

Scott, thank you for posting the question and the follow-up about Celestial Harmonies. I looked over the web site and saw some very interesting musical offerings which will tempt me. Ken
