All immigrants, this "band nation" forms a veritable stew of cultures, faiths and languages to play jewish music. Barcelionian street life, its glorious architecture and colourful denizens are interwoven with the band's rehearsals, live concerts and backstage antics. As Ellen struggles with her "newly minted" Jewishness, she discovers that music is her muse, a revelation that allows her to resuscitate an almost forgotten musical form and her own spirituality.<48min 23sec>Language:EnglishNotes:Detailed holdings information: -
