In this two-part concert programme, Herje Mine explores the musical roots of two of its band members and presents Ladino songs, songs in the language of the Sephardim who can be found in many countries around the world. The second part of the concert focuses on Pijjutim – poems intended for liturgical use that Jewish people often encounter: at Shabbat meals, but also on the radio, at school and even in proverbs. The themes of the various poems are sometimes ancient, but still relevant today. Love, happiness, war, forgiveness, the conflict between faith and everyday life, etc. – all of this is reflected in beautiful rhymes and metaphors.
