Then, above a tinkling piano accompaniment, her voice rises plaintively while her hands trace delicate arabesques. As she sings an ancient Sephardic spiritual or a song of Yemen's lonely shepherds, her voice rises in volume and takes on a coarser quality, and the melodies take eerie slides and leaps.
