Journey to Sepharad

BBC World Service - Heart and Soul, Journey to Sepharad

Michael Goldfarb goes on a journey from the past to the present in search of Sepharad.

Sepharad is the Hebrew word for Spain and Jews who trace their ancestry there are called Sephardic Jews. Five hundred years ago they were expelled from Spain. Their exile created new communities stretching from Brazil to Amsterdam to Istanbul and today, Israel. It is a culture filled with food and songs of longing for a homeland. Michael Goldfarb goes on a journey from the past to the present in search of Sepharad.
