THE BURNING BUSH. Lucie Skeaping and the Burning Bush play traditional music of the Old Jewish
World: mystical dances of the orthodox Hassidic sect, Russian Klezmer melodies, comic songs of the Yiddish theatre
and songs of the ghetto, Judeo-Spanish romances, devotional songs of the old Ottoman world and the compelling
rhythms of the Jewish East. Interpretations are based on carefully researched local and historical styles and
feature an exotic array of instruments. The Burning Bush was formed after musician and broadcaster Lucie Skeaping
was commissioned by the BBC to make a programme to mark the Quincentenary of the expulsion of the Jews from Spain.
Its debut
concert at the Queen Elizabeth Hall was a sell-out and it has since performed in Europe and South America.
