Who wrote this gem of historical misinformation?
R
(En español despues del ingles) What on earth does this mean? «His Merchant of Venice production will adapted into a sephardi style featuring Jewish ladino music of the era.» What is a «Sephardi style» with respect to Shakespeare? And WHAT «Jewish ladino music of the era»? There is no such thing.
Pero que quiere decir esto? nada, es sin sentido. No existe un «estilo sefardi» de Shakespeare – ¡por favor!, ni tampoco existe «musica judia en ladino de la época».
