On her third album Mor Karbasi, a leading singer in the Sephardic tradition, performs adaptations of traditional Ladino songs and three original compositions with fado, flamenco and jazz inflected arrangements. Mor sings in Ladino, a beautiful language, with its roots in the ancient lost culture of the Jewish communities of the golden age of Al-Andalus in 10th century southern Spain, that has almost died out as well as in Hebrew and Spanish. 'La Tsadika' explores largely traditional Moroccan Sephardic repertoire and pays tribute to her Moroccan-born mother's influence, with Mor providing musical settings for her mother's lyrics on two songs. Mor discovered a treasure trove of untouched field recordings of traditional Sephardic songs from Morocco and these provide the focus of the album.
