This page gives some excerpts of the liturgy of our Synagogue whose rite is Sephardic of the region of Constantine in Algeria.
The h'azanut or liturgy of the Constantine region is not like those of other North African countries. She is more melancholy and more subtle. It is inspired by Malouf (Arab-Andalusian music from Algeria among others). It makes us vibrate with all our being. Our duty is to share it and to perpetuate it from generation to generation, which is what our synagogue is committed to.
