DESCRIPTION:For centuries\, Jews and Muslims have shared Andalusi music acr
 oss the Iberic Peninsula and the Maghreb. In this workshop\, Laura Elkesla

 r Moroccan roots\, exploring North-African folk\, Andalusi nubas\, and Mag
 hrebi Jewish sacred music from a feminist standpoint. In 2019\, Laura bega
 n researching Maqam (Arabic music theory) and stumbled onto a treasure tro
 ve of profound family truths. Laura’s ongoing journey of self-discovery
 –which includes forgotten ancestors\, wild synchronicities found in dust
 y old bookstores\, and the reclaiming of a lost family name–is the inspi
 rational heart of her multimedia project Ya Ghorbati: Divas in Exile.Devel
