Shira U'tfila - Prayers for the eve of Shabbat

Liturgical music tradition from Belgrade and Sarajevo

The Kingdom of Yugoslavia lay on the border between the Austro-Hungarian and the Ottoman empires, with the Jewish communities of Belgrade and Sarajevo—once vibrant, now waning—a rare crossroads between these two cultures.  "Arvit Shel Shabbat" highlights the unique liturgical tradition of these Jews, and their mixture of Sephardic (Spanish) and Askhenazi (Eastern European) melodies.
