SUMMARY:Songs of Toratah: Album Release Concert
DESCRIPTION:Songs of Toratah: Album Release Concert\nThursday\, February 29\n7:00–8:30 pm ET\nNYC\nThe Torah has traditionally centered on men\, and music inspired by the Bible has often followed suit. But what if we could experience songs that embrace matriarchy and the Feminine Divine as the unquestioned core of our foundational narratives? How would it sound\, and what kind of impact would it have? \nCelebrate the opening of Central Synagogue’s new exhibition Toratah: The Artistry of Transformation\, with a concert marking the album release of Zimratah: Songs of Toratah – a collection of songs that celebrate the language of Toratah\, a revolutionary rewrite of the Hebrew Bible. In the exhibition and concert\, Toratah reverses the genders of all its characters\, placing women at the center of our sacred texts and opens up possibilities for gender diversity. \nThis concert features acclaimed and stylistically diverse international singer-songwriters who composed singable melodies from verses of Toratah. Through their words and music\, they contribute to the creation of a new cultural language. After singing and dancing with us\, partake in a celebratory reception in our exhibition space to experience Toratah: The Artistry of Transformation\, with visual artwork by BeitToratah.org founder Yael Kanarek. \nSongs composed and performed by: Shira Averbuch\, Elana Brody\, Koach Baruch (KB) Frazier\, Au.D\, Yuli Yael Be’eri\, Yosef Goldman\, Naomi Less\, Rabbi Annie Lewis\, Chava Mirel*\, Alicia Jo Rabins\, Miriam Rubin\, Beth Schafer*\, Basya Schechter\, Julie Silver*\, and Kohenet Dr. Harriette E. Wimms\, and featuring our own Jenna Pearsall and Beth Reinstein.\n*These artists’ works will be performed by others in the concert.  \nExecutive Producer: Yael Kanarek\nArtistic Producer: Naomi Less\nMusic Producer: Yuli Be’eri\nAdvisor: Tamar Biala \nAs of February 1\, 2024\, this concert is co-sponsored by  Beit Toratah\, Central Synagogue\, SAJ\, Lab/Shul\, Ayin Press\, JOC Mishpacha Project\, LABA\, B’nai Jeshurun\, CBST\, Romemu\, Aleph Alliance\, Beit Kohenet\, Kolot Chayeinu\, Barnert Temple\, Temple Emanu-El\, The Shalom Center and Temple of the Stranger.
