Hanukah Song Share with Leah Shoshanah and the Havurah Music Collective
Sunday, Nov. 29, 4:30-6 pm – Room Aleph
Join our Music Coordinator, Leah Shoshanah and musicians from the Havurah Musician’s Collective for an evening of learning and sharing songs. This month, our theme focuses on resilience, justice and light in honor of the upcoming holiday of Hanukah. We will be sharing a mix of classic Hanukah songs, Sephardic songs, secular songs, and new Hanukah songs by contemporary composers. We will provide song sheets, chord sheets and a brief singing/playing tutorial so that folks can continue playing these songs in their own homes. While not a kid-focused event, this is a kid-friendly event, and we encourage families to join us. RSVP here.
