El pan de la aflicción (The bread of affliction)

This recording I made is a way to revisit the Sephardic tradition from North Morocco of reading the Pesach Hagadah in the original Aramaic and Hebrew, and in Ladino (the old Spanish dialectic that they kept after the expulsion in 1492). This is the HaLachma Anya (The bread of affliction) that is always preceded by the Bibihilou, when we pass the Pesach plate over the heads of all the persons attending the seder. For those who have a Caribbean ear, you may recognize the typical Colombian beat called porro. Mandolin, electronics & mix: Isaac Nahón Serfaty Voices: Rabbi Abraham Lopes Cardoso, Moroccan families celebrating Pesach, and computer voice
