The Catalan Mahzor (C. 1280), is a medieval Spanish Jewish manuscript. Through a remarkable use of illuminations constructed from words of ancient Hebrew Psalms, the Mahzor weaves a stirring story of spiritual redemption. Following the Spanish expulsion, the manuscript traveled to Italy, Syria, Turkey, Germany, and the United States, concealed by local communities. Currently, it is housed at the National Library of Israel in Jerusalem.

Mesmerized by the beauty and mystery of this outstanding manuscript, Ira Klein created The Catalan Mahzor Suite, a full-length immersive art performance combining music, dance, and visuals in collaboration with choreographer and dancer Rachel Linsky and string player Beth Bahia Cohen.

The Catalan Mahzor Suite has been performed at venues including Brooklyn's Center For New Jewish Culture, The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, Hebrew College and the Boston Festival of New Jewish Music.
