At the Rebbe's Table is the third recording by guitarist Tim Sparks on the Tzadik Records label.

History

Producer John Zorn combined Sparks with Masada alumni Greg Cohen and Brazilian percussionist Cyro Baptista on Sparks' previous release Tanz, and this time adds guitarist Marc Ribot on nylon-string guitar and Erik Friedlander on cello.[1]

Reception

Template:Music ratings At the Rebbe's Table received favorable reviews. Allmusic music critic Steven Loewy stated "Sparks treats the melodies respectfully as serious guides to a people's past, and in the process explores the life-affirming nature of the music."[1] JazzTimes critic Josef Woodard wrote "Whatever the heritage or cultural pedigree, it's simply touching music."[2]

Music critic Kirk Albrecht wrote At the Rebbe's Table "...may be Sparks' best yet in capturing the life and cross-pollination richly textured in these 11 selections from the diaspora Jewish communities around the world."[3]
