Azam Ali(vas) - Mandara

VORIA MONOPATIA

The inspiration for this song comes from the tragic 'El pozo amargo' (The Bitter Well) legend of Toledo, Spain. It recounts the heartbreaking love story of a Jewish girl and a brave Christian boy who is killed by the girl's father during one of their secret nocturnal encounters. According to the legend, Raquel cried so much that her tears made the well's water bitter. Distraught with grief, she ended her life by throwing herself down the well. 
Originally situated within a Jewish mansion, the well still survives today in a small square on 'El pozo amargo' Street near the Cathedral of Toledo. It was at this spot where the enamored couple, Raquel and Fernando, would secretly rendezvous and where their tragic love story became an enduring legend.

Tema inspirado en la trágica leyenda toledana de 'El pozo amargo'. Narra los desamores entre una judía toledana y un valiente cristiano, que es asesinado por el padre de ella en una de sus encuentros nocturnos. La leyenda cuenta que las lágrimas de Raquel amargaron las aguas de este pozo, donde ella acabó tirándose presa de la locura. 
Muy cerca de la catedral de Toledo se encuentra la calle de 'EL pozo amargo', donde todavía se conserva este pozo. Es el lugar donde se ubicaba el palacio judío escenario de la leyenda, donde se daban cita los enamorados Raquel y Fernando.

LYRICS/LETRAS

'Las sombras de tu vergel secreto escondieron los besos de labio y labio abiertos en flor 
Doncella de nobleza levita, si adoras a un cristiano más vale que silencies tu amor
La noche soñada en los jardines despista a los guardianes que velan tus paseos, Raquel
Tan solo la luna en su crecida conoce de tus dichas y el pozo en que le aguardas a el

Rosarios de auroras toledanas bendicen vuestra suerte y os vuelven descuidados tal vez
Luceros y estrellas pasajeras perfilan en el aire su entrega y tu desnudez
Y al alba de una noche certera partido de un abrazo por una daga criminal
La sangre templada de Fernando destila entre tus manos y anuncia su destino fatal

'En su agua calmaré
Este amargo dolor
Fernando, sálvame,
¿ya estás aquí, mi amor?'

Calvario de pena y desconsuelo te arranca de tu lecho en delirio y vas al pozo a llorar
Locura de hiel en tus sollozos derraman en su cauce el mal sabor de tu pesar
Asomas a la  fosa profunda, sus ojos te sonríen, serenos del perdón de Dios
Y cuentan cristianos de Toledo que aullando con el viento quebrada se escucha tu voz'

Producido por John Zorn bajo el sello neoyorkino Tzadik, CANTOS PARA UNA DIASPORA es el primer disco solista de la cantante y cineasta mexicana de origen judío Dora Juárez Kiczkovsky.
Con estos cantos sefaradíes de amor, muerte, guerra y migración, la
integrante  del ecléctico trío vocal Muna Zul, se  sumerge en sus orígenes 
con un espíritu desenfadado, fresco y profundo a la vez, dando como resultado una exquisita mezcla que entrelaza lo ancestral con lo contemporáneo.
Esta nueva y original mirada hacia el canto sefaradí, llena de hondura, sensibilidad  y una sana irreverencia  hace de este disco una pieza entrañable que tocará tu corazón.

Yamma Ensemble - Armenian Love Song

Biz bir grup adam ve bir bayanız. Ve elbette dertlerimiz var hayata, aşka, dünyaya, hatta bu dünyada olup biten her şeye. Üstelik neredeyse her birimiz farklı bir yerden bakıyor dünyaya. Ortak noktamız ise müzik...

Kimsenin duymadığı, kimsenin bilmediği, halkların ortak yaratısı olan ezgileri bulup çıkarmak ve bunlar herkesle paylaşmak en büyük keyfimiz.

EN
We are a team consist of men and a woman. As a matter of course we concerned about life, love, world and everything happens in the world.

And furthermore, each one of us sees the world from a different point of view. However we found a middle ground on music with sharing lesser heard melodies, unknown music and jointly created music by folk with everyone is our enjoyment..
