The Sephardic Songbook 2nd edition

[Joshua Horowitz <horowitz...>]

The Sephardic Songbook (2001 ISBN 3-87626-222-4) released 10 months ago by
Aron Saltiel and Josh Horowitz is just entering the second edition (the
first sold out).

If you have had any problems in ordering, it is probably because C.F. Peters
Edition (the publisher) was not prepared for the high volume of sales, and
is now rushing to print the second round.

The Sephardic Songbook is a collection of 51 Judeo-Spanish tunes from
Turkey, Bulgaria, Greece and Bosnia, collected and edited by Aron Saltiel,
one of the leading exponents of the Sephardic music community and a native
speaker of Ladino, with transcriptions and an extensive introduction by Josh
Horowitz.

The book contains the complete texts and melodies of all songs in
Judeo-Spanish, English and German, complete with annotations, linguistic
details and information about the informants. It took 10 years to make and
was put together meticulously from field recordings which were made over the
past 30 years. For list information, go to:
