Forgotten Clefs: Surviving Inquisition

Exploring Spanish and Sephardic music over a 400-year span, "Surviving Inquisition" traces the journey of Sephardic Jews from the thirteenth century
in Alfonso el Sabio's Castile, through the early years of the Inquisition in late fifteenth-century Catholic Spain, to Italy in the early seventeenth century, where many Jews lived following expulsion. Using European and Arabic instruments-including dulcians, harp, hurdy-gurdy, recorders, and shawms-Surviving Inquisition intertwines traditional Sephardic tunes with Catholic music from Medieval manuscripts, featuring works by Juan del Encina (1468-1530), Juan de Anchieta (1462-1523), Christobal de Morales (1500-1553), and Salamone Rossi (1570-1630).
