Sarah Aroeste: Ladino Music performance
November 9, 2016 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
$10 – $15The Sam & Helen Stahl Center for Jewish Studies in partnership with Latino Arts, Inc. present Ladino singer Sarah Aroeste. Determined to help bring Ladino (Judeo-Spanish) music back to life for a new generation, international Ladino singer Sarah Aroeste draws upon her Sephardic family roots from Spain, Greece and beyond to present original and 15th-century Ladino folk songs along with her unique blend of rock, pop, and jazz. In the last 15 years, Aroeste has released four recordings, A la Una: In the Beginning (2003), Puertas (2007), Gracia (2012), and most recently, Ora de Despertar (2016), the first-ever all-original Ladino children’s album. Bringing a fresh and inspiring modern sound to Sephardic music, Sarah Aroeste’s contemporary Ladino style has helped to transform and revitalize a tradition.
