La Mar Enfortuna is a project by Jennifer Charles and Oren Bloedow – founders of the legendary alternative rock group Elysian Fields. These two avant-garde artists have reinterpreted the traditional music of the Sephardic Jews whose roots go back to the Golden Age of tolerant Andalusia, where Jews, Muslims and Christians lived together in harmony. La Mar’s music is a modern and extremely original interpretation of this tradition. Their concert at the 18th Jewish Culture Festival in 2008 electrified the audience and went down in history as one of the most unique musical events of the festival.
