Same Earth, Same Sky "I am firmly convinced that the surest way to understand a people is to listen to its folk music. Here, in clear poetry and direct melody, the heart resides. It was with the intention to give voice to the heart of the Jewish people that Same Earth Same Sky was born.

These twelve folk songs represent, for me, the best of Jewish folk music. The melodies sound 'just right' – telling our story with such immediacy that listeners of all cultures can hear their own story, as well. The words are a window – look through it and you will find our deepest longings and our highest aspirations mixed with a large measure of determination."

– Eleanor Epstein, Artistic Director
