Charming Hostess Live Yedidi

This song is from The Bowls Project by Charming Bowls Project is inspired by texts drawn from Babylonian demon bowls, amulets common from 300700 CE in the area now known as Iraq. Demon bowls, or incantation bowls, were inscribed with a householder s secrets and desires and then buried under the doorway to protect her home. Demon bowl inscriptions are about secrets of the home : love and sensuality; angels and demons; and the trials and joys of daily life. Especially audible in these texts are the individual voices of women from this period: their sexuality, work, hopes, and spiraled Aramaic inscriptions are among the few existing records of female voices during the time and place of the Babylonian Talmud. Jewlia researched these bowls for four years. She read hundreds of incantation bowls, and ended up setting her favorites.
