Sephardic Music and its Roots Sephardic music and songs �ballads, cantigas, coplas (calendar cycle songs), canciones (songs performed at the royal courts), romances (Hispanic narrative ballads), and wedding songs �were born in medieval Spain and preserved by the Jewish communities expelled from the Iberian Peninsula during the Spanish Inquisition. Sephardic music is richly varied, reflecting the cultures of the various Mediterranean countries in which most of the Spanish Jews settled. Because so many centuries have passed since the exodus from Spain, a lot of the original music has adopted the melodies and rhythms of the various countries where the Sephardim settled in, such as Greece, Morocco, Turkey, Argentina, and Israel. As a result of this, Sephardic music can be heard with different tunes, languages, and performance styles. Currently, there are many musicians in Israel, Spain, and North America who are performing and researching Sephardic songs and even developing new music with elements of Hebrew, Turkish, Arabic, even mixing it with Andalusian flamenco. With live performances, using audio and visual material, and concentrating on specific examples, this course will give students the opportunity to learn and enjoy, as well as listen and analyze some of the historical trends that have shaped the richness and variety of the Sephardic tradition. A Classroom course provided by The Juilliard School in New York City, New York, United States
