Music's wonderful, her voice has something magic. Just a bit of constructive criticism: Sarah should improve her ladino pronunciation, which is affected by her american accent. I know it's difficult, since her mother tongue is an anglosaxon language rather than a latin one. Keep it up Sarah! Best regards from Milan. ps: Thessaloniki rules!

Sarah should do a duet with David Broza... they would sound sweet together.

Uhh...I'm sorry but "to you" has nothing to do with what Ladino actually is. Ladino is derived from the Spanish spoken by the what are now known as Sephardic Jews expelled from Spain in 1492. Their descendents speak a form of Spanish with many medieval features and innovations that evolved separately from standard Spanish. Portuguese and Spanish had become separate languages several centuries before the Jews were expelled.

Theyre doing a fantastic job keeping Ladino culture strong. i just hope theres more artists in the USa doing the same, keeping the Ladino language alive...plus sarah's hot...which helps if you wanna pull in the crowds ;-)

To me, Landino is the language spoken in the Iberian Peninsula before it broke into Spanish and Portuguese. I love the music, its beautiful.

That's really cool. I'm trying to trace my geanealogy so I'm wondering how you found that out. Did you use public records, family documents, etc.?
