Ladino Reverie
author: Joyce Ben-EzraA wonderful interpretation of these precious Ladino songs. In addition to Mr. Botton's magnificent voice, his clarity of pronunciaton of the lyrics makes this album even more valuable.
Sensitive presentation of Landino Folk Music, professionally produced.
author: Richard DavidThis album is truly a classic. It brings to life the folk music of the Safardic Jew. Its obvious Mr. Botton was raised in the classical tongue of Landino, as well as being full of the passion that propels the music into a heartfelt expression of faith.
A delightful authentic Ladino presentation
author: Jaclyn ChernettThis is a genuine Ladino collection of songs by a highly experienced Hazzan who grew up with Ladino in his ears and his soul. It is a delight for anyone wanting to hear the real thing!
Buy this very important CD!

Cantor Botton is a treasure as both an aritst and a resource for this music, and this CD is necessary to any collection of Ladino and Spanish-Judeo music.
