This, Too, Is Torah – A Shavuot Concert

June 9 @ 3:00 pm

- Free
This, Too, Is Torah: A Shavuot Concert. Sunday, June 9 at 3pm. Free to the public.

Join us for a concert of great Jewish music from throughout the ages! At Shavuot we celebrate the revelation of Torah in all of its forms, and we gather to offer up the “first fruits” of the spring harvest. We’ll hear great music, both Sefardic and Ashkenazi, that spans different eras of Jewish history, including compositions by Flory Jagoda, Salomone Rossi, Naomi Shemer, Salomon Sulzer, Debbie Friedman, Louis Lewandowski, and more. Under the direction of Adam Green, the Congregation Beth Israel choir and musicians will offer up a spring harvest of spirit and harmony.

The concert will be followed by a celebratory potluck. Following Ashkenazi Shavuot custom, this meal is designated as a dairy meal (that means no meat; items may be dairy, vegetarian, vegan, or pescatarian). If you can join us for that, please let us know what you can bring to share by signing up here via Google Docs.
