Sarah Aroeste: Bringing Ladino to the Stage at Yidstock

This week we visit with Judeo-Spanish singer Sarah Aroeste. Sarah, American-born and trained in classical opera at Westminster Choir College and Yale University, was inspired by her family's Sephardic roots in Greece and Macedonia to bring her contemporary style of original and traditional Ladino music to audiences around the world. On July 15 she’ll be taking the stage at the Center's Yidstock: The Festival of New Yiddish Music along with Yiddish art and folk song vocalist, composer, and arranger Anthony Russell.
