Mosaics from the Middle East

With music taken from both the Arab and Jewish traditions, this concert explores the shared experiences of motherhood, prayer, grief, and a wish for peace, through hauntingly beautiful melodies and lyrics from poets such as Natan Yonatan and Mohja Kahf. We will round out the concert with a new commission by Craig Taubman–musician and founder of the Pico Union Project–entitled “ Shalom Aleichem” (peace be upon you), combining Hebrew, Arabic, and English text.
