EJC Presents: Lecture, Sacred Music of Moroccan Jews, Cantor Eyal Bitton

Through lecture and song, Cantor Eyal Bitton examines various elements of Moroccan sacred music - synagogue song, cantillation of sacred texts, the piyut (liturgical poetry), and life cycle songs. Moroccan Jews have a very rich and proud religious culture, and a varied and ancient musical tradition, reflecting its Moroccan milieu, its Andalusian heritage, and more.
