this lovely piece is a compliment to the birkat hamazon. it originated among spanish and portuguese jews, with the lore being that they sang it instead of the birkat hamazon during the inquisition to avoid being outed as still practicing judaism but wanting to still hold onto their customs, but it is popular among many different sephardi communities today. it is sung in modern spanish but i’m sure there is a ladino version out there somewhere. i love this performance, i just think the vibe is fantastic. so if you are looking for an addition to your birkat hamazon or want something to use in place of it, consider this song!

passover music around the world!

tonight is the first night of pesah and i thought i'd do a little post series where every day i post a song (or multiple songs) from across the jewish diaspora. i'll be primarily focusing on pan-sephardi music, but if you have any other recs or requests i'd be happy to post them! i'll be using the tag #pesah byahad and פסח ביחד#
