Temple Isaiah's Cantor Leigh Korn presents "Coming Together: Songs of Unity and Community," featuring a stellar cast of cantors from across the country at 7 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 21 in the Temple Isaiah Sanctuary in Lafayette. Joining Cantor Korn will be: Cantor Sara Hass of Temple Israel, Long Beach, California; Cantor Juval Porat of Beth Chaim Chadashim, Los Angeles, California; Cantor Jen Roher, Temple Shomer Emunim, Sylvania, Ohio; Cantor Rollin Simmons, Congregation Emanu El, Houston, Texas; Cantor Dan Singer, Stephen Wise Free Synagogue, New York, New York; Cantor Dan Sklar, Temple Israel, Westport, Connecticut; and Cantor Shirah Sklar, Temple Shalom, Norwalk, Connecticut; with Daniel Lockert on piano.
"At this year's Cantor's Concert, we will be celebrating the strength of music to bring us together," Korn said. "The concert will feature some of the most exciting vocal and musical talents in the Reform cantorate to celebrate both music about coming together and music that brings us together. Whether at concerts, social events, or services, music can help us connect, cooperate, and care for each other. When we are in sync musically with our neighbors in the pews, we are strengthened in mind and spirit."
The concert is sponsored by the Cantor's Music Fund, with a dessert reception sponsored by Women of Isaiah. (Special thanks to co-chairs Karen Goldberg and Lynn Epstein.) Tickets are $36. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. |
