About Lucette van den Berg
‘Give me a song I can feel' is the maxim of the versatile singer Lucette van den Berg

La Serena – Sephardic songs
With the Duo La Serena (Lucette van den Berg and Annedee Jager) I recorded a CD with Sephardic songs from around the Mediterranean.
On this CD we take you on an exciting musical journey through the different countries of the Ottoman Empire, from Spain to Turkey. The music comes from different periods and musical traditions and has been arranged by us in a contemporary way. Jewish music mixes with classical, Arabic and even flamenco sounds. A CD full of warmth and adventure, for music lovers who want to travel with mind and heart.
