Land of Three Faiths:

Voices of Ancient Mediterranean Jews, Christians, and Muslims

Saturday, October 6, 8:00 PM
Synod Hall, Oakland

Pre-concert discussion at 7:00 PM

The Rose Ensemble’s “Land of Three Faiths” program explores with audiences the rich musical, cultural, and linguistic exchanges and collaborations that took place among people of different faith traditions in medieval Spain. The result of years of intensive research and training, “Land of Three Faiths” is at once sacred, secular, folk, and classical. Featuring instruments and musical ideas that blur the lines between Arabic and European, this entertaining and enlightening program achieves a perfect balance of edgy improvisation, diverse vocal styles, and ancient traditions.

This engagement of The Rose Ensemble is made possible in part through the ArtsCONNECT program of Mid Atlantic Arts Foundation with support from the National Endowment for the Arts.
