Yuval Ron presents a preview concert of the music to be played by his international ensemble for the King of Morocco, at the Fes Festival of World Sacred Music in June 2009. The program will feature Hebrew and Ladino songs from Morocco, Andalusia, Bosnia, and Israel. Woven in between the songs are travel stories, kabalistic interpretations, and personal anecdotes of the life and culture, out of which grew the fruit of Sephardic music.
