8:00-9:00am, Tuesday, Sept 1 & Wednesday, Sept 9.
The paradoxical coexistence of joy and awe is built into the very fabric of the High Holiday season. Come prepare for it with Rabbi Ebn Leader as he leads us in the soul-searching, poetic melodies of the Syrian/Kurdish Jewish tradition, played by Yoni Battat. Sign up via Happenings.
Yoni Avi Battat is a multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, and composer, playing violin, viola, and oud in collaborative and interdisciplinary projects exploring both Mizrahi and Ashkenazi Jewish expression. Yoni’s music has been described as “an education for the ear and the soul,” inviting listeners to find healing, meaning, and joy in the experience of being human.
