The period often referred to as la convivencia (broadly speaking, 711 to 1492 C.E.) is perhaps the most often associated with a fruitful development and propagation of Spanish Judeo-Muslim (and -Christian) culture, scholarship and arts. This program of music from Muslim and Jewish Spain will highlight the various ways in which the musical forms and repertories of the three religions coexisted and drew from one another, in Spain during the period of coexistence up to 1492, and afterwards in Morocco, the Balkans, Turkey-and even across the Atlantic Ocean.
