SUMMARY:Journeys Through Jewish Music
DESCRIPTION:From sacred text cantillation to symphonic overtures to Israeli hip-hop\, Jewish music has continually reinvented itself across time and place. Like all things Jewish\, our musical landscape has evolved in dynamic conversation with the host cultures of the Diaspora. Join Rabbi Laurie for a deep dive into the delights\, surprises\, and spiritual power of Jewish music through the ages.  \nWhat to Expect \n\nExploration of the spiritual and cultural foundations of Jewish musical traditions\nInsight into how Jewish music adapts to and transforms surrounding cultures\nListening sessions\, stories\, and historical context across time and place\nThoughtful discussion in a welcoming\, accessible environment—no background needed\n\nRabbi Laurie Matzkin: Now in her fourth year as PJCC’s Chief Jewish Experience Officer\, Rabbi Laurie brings together her training in Classical Music (Flute Performance) and Jewish Studies from Indiana University. Her work centers on revealing the deep interplay between music and Judaism and sharing the remarkable—often hidden—treasures of Jewish music with learners of all ages. \n\nSold Out
