It was an honor to be a part of the Warsaw cast this past Sunday for our reading at Lefrak Concert Hall. The show was enthusiastically received, and I am in complete awe of the incredible cast of talent I shared the stage with. WARSAW is not only beautiful and entertaining but carries an important human message that should continue to be shared. Our fabulous director, Jamibeth Margolis, has put the show on Kickstarter in order to raise some of the funds needed to take this show to the next level. If you are able, please consider supporting WARSAW on it's journey to Broadway. You can learn more about making a tax deductable donation, and do so easily, by clicking here: I'm Helping WARSAW Get to Broadway!...There, now don't you feel good? :)

I am in busy preparations to perform at the 4th International Jewish Music Festival, this year in New York City (how convenient), sponsored by Shalshelet; The Foundation for New Jewish Liturgical Music. The festival concert will take place at Congregation Ansche Chesed on December 4th@8pm. There will also be composers workshops held all day Sunday, December 5th, from 10am-5pm. If you are in the NYC area, please consider coming and checking out some beautiful new music, all by contemporary composers from around the world. I have to give special mention to Chazzan Natasha Hirschhorn, the vice-president of Shalshelet, and the director of Shir Chadash, a Brooklyn-based Jewish choir that I am proud to assistant direct. Natasha is an inspiring musician and woman, and I am honored to work with her so closely.
Ticket information for the festival can be found here.
