From remembering specific departed loved ones to moments in Jewish history, memory plays an enormous role in the Jewish experience.

Spend an evening immersed in varied interpretations of memory.

🎵 Settings of Kaddish texts extolling God’s greatness, including a new arrangement by Dave Schlossberg of Dan Nichols’ “Beyond"

🎵 Texts associated with memorials, including Jordan Franzel’s “Esa Einai” (Psalm 121) and Movement #2 of Leonard Bernstein’s “Chichester Psalms” (Psalm 23)

🎵 Specific Shoah references, including Stephen Glass’ setting of “Eili, Eili” and Bonia Shur’s “Never Again”

Memory brings the past forward into the present and future.

Come be a part of it, and join us in honoring our collaborative keyboard artist, Dave Schlossberg for 24 years of creative dedication.
