Yavneh Ensemble Concert: From Light to Light - Music for Shabbat November 17, 2007

Through a wide variety of choral music, with narration, you will experience Shabbat from the light of Friday night candles until the light of the Havdalah candle. Highlights include:

• The original choral versions of well-known synagogue tunes by 19th century composers Solomon Sulzer, (Torah service music) Louis Lewandowski (Tov L’Hodot/Tzadik Katamar) and Eliezer Gerovitsch (Adon Olam). Some surprises will be in store.

• Contemporary settings of the liturgy and z’mirot by Robert Applebaum, Yehezkel Braun, Meir Finkelstein, Ben Steinberg, Tzipora Jochsberger, and others.

• Imaginative settings of Yiddish songs for Mincha and Havdalah by Artistic Director Robert A.M. Ross.

• The spectacular Zavel Zilberts Havdalah.
