Modern Recordings
with 78-era Songs
In an age that has seen the re-release of
literally thousands of 78s, the current crop of Sephardic 78s
and 78-era recordings available in modern formats is meager, indeed.
 Principal
Recordings
In 1989 Professor Edwin Seroussi authored a book about the life
and music of Isaac Algazi,
Mizimrat Qedem. A companion
two-cassette set
published by
Renanot
included 32 of the famous rabbi's Hebrew and Judeo-Spanish
recordings. Subsets of these selections were then later released on
the
Wergo and
Kalan labels.
Global Village released Victoria Hazan's entire recorded repertory on
their 2001 issue,
Todas Mis Esperansas.
The Jewish Music Research Centre and its AMTI label have released An Early 20th-Century Sephardi Troubadour: The Historical
Recordings of Haim Effendi of Turkey. This monumental 4-CD
re-release with 59 songs chronicles the liturgical and secular output of
this extremely influential Sephardic 78-rpm recording artist. See more
here.
