Morasha: Traditional Jewish Musical Heritage

Various Artists
Morasha: Traditional Jewish Musical Heritage

Biblical chanting, prayers, holy and profane songs, tunes for the Sabbath, feasts and Holy Days—these largely vocal "authentic songs" were collected by Dr. Amnon Shiloah from highly accomplished, non-professional musicians. "Morasha" means "heritage."
