New CD-Abayudaya: Music from The Jewish People of Uganda



***New Release**On Sale $15.00-Includes Domestic Shipping*** New Release***

Abayudaya: Music From the Jewish People of Uganda 
presents a unique collection of African - Jewish music in which the rhythms 
and harmonies of Africa blend with Jewish celebration and traditional Hebrew 
prayer. The repertoire is rooted in local Ugandan music and infused with rich 
choral singing, Afro-pop, , and traditional drumming. the repertoire includes 
lullabies, political and children's songs, religious rituals, hymns, and 
celebratory music with song texts in Hebrew, English, and several Ugandan 
languages.  
this singular community of African people living committed Jewish lives has 
survived persecution and isolation and asserts, "We have been saved by our 
music."

The CD booklet includes a brief history of the Abayudaya Jews and includes 
some photos. A rare look into a community that is now finally being recognized 
by the Jewish world.

We are offering this CD at $15.00 and free shipping through the month of 
October with all prepaid Visa & Mastercard order.
