Description

CD La Juderia Yasmin Levy

Yasmin Levy's first album Romance And Yasmin focuses on Ladino music and its Turkish influences and was greatly influenced by the work of her late father Yitzhak Levy. Born in Turkey in 1919 before moving with his family to Palestine he worked as both a composer and cantor before being appointed head of the Ladino department at Israel's national radio station.
His life's work was devoted to the collection and preservation of the songs of Sephardic Jews: these songs had been passed down orally from generation to generation over a period in excess of 500 years. During his lifetime he published 4 books containing Sephardic romances and another 10 volumes of liturgical songs.
He also recorded many of these same songs for the national radio. Sadly, Yitzhak Levy passed away when Yasmin was little over one year old. Nevertheless she grew up knowing her father's love for this music and his heritage as he had also taught her mother Kochava the Sephardic repertoire and she, in turn, passed the songs on to their daughter.
When Yasmin was preparing her first disc Romance And Yasmin, she
was she says: "helped enormously by the books and recordings my father left behind".
The songs and arrangements on this first album came very naturally to the singer, based on what she had learned from home. She says: "The choice of songs was easy for me as they are all songs to which I have an emotional attachment".
