PASSAGES: Bridge to the Balkans (Robyn Helzner)

Robyn is a stunning vocalist, vivid storyteller and historian who radiates a passion for Jewish music and culture. Her concerts and recordings are acclaimed worldwide. She has led Jewish Heritage Tours to Spain, China, Morocco and most recently, The Balkans. In Bridge to the Balkans, Robyn introduces us to the spectacular beauty of this region and the captivating stories of Sephardic Jews expelled from Spain and Portugal in the 15th century, who found safe haven in the cities of Dubrovnik, Split and Sarajevo. The later arrival of Ashkenazi Jews enriched the cultures of East and West.
