Music and Poetry of the Jews in Renaissance Italy. In its first
visit to Houston, this noted Italian ensemble presents a
reconstruction of the soundscape that would have accompanied a
typical Northern Jewish Italian family through the liturgical year
and the life cycle. It combines sung poetry in Giudeo-Italian,
Yiddish and Hebrew, traditional liturgical and paraliturgical
music, and the lively songs and dances that would have been used to
celebrate life's transitions.
