Jews In Cuba

I don't know much about the history of Jews (and Jewish music) in Cuba outside of Irving Fields 'Bagels and Bongos' and Roberto J. Rodriquez recordings. I ran across this lovingly made video this afternoon. It's a slide show of mostly pre-Castro Cuban Jewish life with a soundtrack from The Barry Sisters 'Hannah from Havanah' and Cesaria Evora's 'Besame Mucho."
