20 March 2020 – Shabbat is almost here
Enjoy with the emblematic Sephardic singer Bienvenida “Berta” Aguado, born in Çanakkale, Turkey, in 1929, settled in Israel from 1979 and passed away in 2016.
Let’s face this terrible time we are suffering in most of the world with the most sublime beauty. She is one of my favourite singers of any time. She is inimitable and unforgettable and her singing is absolutely unique.
Thanks to the works by Susana Weich-Shahak there are many recordings of Bienvenida, an unbelievable singer, who made enchanting intrincate filigrees with her voice, that you could almost don’t believe, in an old Ottoman style.
For this occasion I have chosen La Mujer de Terah, Terah’s Wife, about the prenancy of Abraham’s mother and about his birth and some events in his life. This video is part of the collection of Jak Essim, who is a singer settled in Istambul and works with his wife Janet. You can also find more info about this song in this link about an album with works by Susana Weich-Shahak.

Shabbat Shalom.
