In this musical tour of the four quarters of Old Jerusalem (Jewish, Christian, Arab, and Armenian / Byzantine), surprising cross-influences emerge. A Sabbath prayer leads to a Sephardic ballad of a lover betrayed; selections from Monteverdi’s great Vespers of 1610 echo the rapturous singing of Jewish cantors; a classical Arabic love song leads poignantly into the wild Longa Farahfaza, an instrumental romp. This Passover and Easter, celebrate the love, singing, dancing and prayer that mark all Abrahamic religions in their spring renewal.“Brims with energy and imagination… Programmed with real vision and beautifully performed, a mesmerising portrait of Old Jerusalem reimagined through sound.”
