In Person and Live Streamed!
A duet of the ancient melody of Kol Nidrei between Bassist Saskia Lane and singer Dana Herz will bring in the Day of Repentance. Combining musical traditions from around the world, and melodies from Beineinu and The New Shul, we will stare into the void within the soul where the key to peace, faith and art resides.
"Our theme for these High Holy Days is the Year of Improvisation. As we journey from the storytelling of 18th century Ukraine, to the mystical courts of 12th century Cairo, and into the music scene of 21st century New York City, we will search for ways to live life with a sense of lightness and play.
Improvisation is the art of listening, of taking what comes your way, and adding to what’s given. The improvisor’s response comes from the soulful center of one's being. We improvise when we relinquish our expectation of control and result, and instead enter into the scary yet liberating space of the present moment. Come improvise with us!”
-Rabbi Misha
