Israel's Yasmin Levy, a rising star in world music circles, has mesmerized audiences around the world with her deeply spiritual and moving renditions of songs from her Judeo-Spanish heritage.  Following in the footsteps of her musicologist father Yitzhak Levy, she is a champion of Ladino, the ancient language of the Sephardic Jews that is now facing extinction.   Her program, which includes selections from her new CD Mano Suave (4Q Records), features Sephardic classics, as well as self-penned songs inspired by her heritage and experiences.

Presented in association with The JCC in Manhattan.
This concert is supported in part by American Express.


Tickets $32
