Channa Malkin & Izhar Elias

As part of the theme of Love, the European Day for Jewish Cultural Heritage is organizing a concert. Enjoy Sephardic love songs by Channa Malkin (vocals) and Izhar Elias (guitar). Afterwards, Prof. Irene Zwiep, Professor of Hebrew, Aramaic, and Syriac Languages and Cultures, will give a lecture on this theme. Music that travels through time and culture Long before music was recorded, songs lived on because people sang them. The works of Obizzi and José Marín were the hits of their time, while Sephardic Ladino songs were passed down from generation to generation for centuries. In this program, those two worlds meet. Soprano Channa Malkin and guitarist Izhar Elias take you on a journey through songs full of longing and nostalgia, but also full of passion, rhythm, and joy. Music that travels through time and culture, and that still feels surprisingly close. Professor Irene Zwiep discusses this theme from the perspective of various cultures. Admission is free after registering via the reservation link.
