Wow 🤩 I cannot wait for this! This past summer I became the Interim Cantorial Soloist at Kerem Shalom in Concord, MA. One of the perks (and joys) of the job is getting to coordinate a concert with beloved local musicians and friends to usher in the week of Shabbat Shira. I’m so excited to bring @anatmuse @basbaslev @richiebarshay and @yoniavibattat together for this evening of music and to build our collective setlist. Boston and beyond, join us for Wellspring Havdlalah Concert on January 24th, it’s going to be a treat! 🍬

About:
Join us in welcoming the week of Shabbat Shira, Shabbat of Song, with Wellspring, a participatory Havdalah Concert, featuring Interim Cantorial Soloist Molly Bajgot and musical guests Anat HaLevy Hochberg, Batya Levine, Yoni Battat, and Richie Barshay. Like a wellspring, song, music, and communal singing is a place that we can continuously return to to reinvigorate our spirits, to reenergize our senses, and to fortify our hearts for confronting a deeply challenging and broken world. Together, our song leaders will lead us in original compositions designed to ground us, uplift us, and generate joy. taken in Kerem Shalom - Vineyard of Peace by @richiebarshay

“Suri Goali-Yah” is a song from the Judeo-Iraqi liturgical tradition, sung here by Rabbi Cantor George Mordecai, live in 2018 with Joey Weisenberg & the Hadar Ensemble, released for this week of Beshalach, the Torah portion recounting the Children of Israel’s redemption from Egypt.

Full video is on YouTube at the link in our bio!
