Adio Querdia : Sephardic (Ladino) Song
When your mother gave to the world
She did not give you a heart for a second love.
Goodbye my dear
I don't want to live because you embittered my life.
Go and look for another love
Knock on other doors
wait for another passionate love 
As for me- you are dead.

Constantinople est un ensemble musical qui a choisi de faire du voyage son fondement – voyage géographique, historique, culturel, intérieur –, de s’abreuver à toutes les sources et de viser les horizons lointains. Empruntant son nom à l’ancienne cité phare éclairant l’Orient et l’Occident, l’ensemble a été imaginé comme un espace de rencontres et de métissages par son directeur artistique Kiya Tabassian et fondé en 1998 à Montréal.

Constantinople is a musical ensemble that chose the journey—geographical certainly, but also historical, cultural and inner—as its cornerstone. It draws inspiration from all sources and aims for distant horizons. Inspired by the ancient city illuminating the East and West, Constantinople was founded in 1998 in Montreal by its artistic director, Kiya Tabassian.
