Angelo Conegliano, Leo Levi
Betzet Yisrael
This melody for Psalm 114, celebrating the Exodus, is a revealing example of the "Pan Italian repertoire." Sung during the Passover services in the Italian rites of Ferarra (as documented here) and Rome, it also appears in the Sephardi repertoires of Livorno and Venice as a "Melodic Marker" of this holiday.
