SUMMARY:A Celebration of Two Yiddish Bards: Mordechai Gebirtig and Chava Alberstein
DESCRIPTION:Mordechai Gebirtig (1877 – 1942) was the most popular and beloved Yiddish songwriter of the 20th Century.  His songs express the heart and soul of each person and at the same time reflect the feelings and striving of the Jewish people as a whole.  So popular were his songs that many were mistaken for folksongs.  Among them are\n\n\nReyzele (Reisl) — about  young love; \nYosl Ber — about joining the army\, and  \nUndzer Shtetl Brent (Our Town is Burning) \n\nThey are by turns tender\, pithy\,  and prescient.\nChava Alberstein is perhaps best known for being the great diva (like Joan Baez) of Israeli popular music.  But during her entire career of performing in Hebrew\, she  also performed and recorded Yiddish songs.  Her most recent forays into Yiddish were composing and arranging original music to the words of famous Yiddish poets.\n \n\nThe beautiful songs of these two outstanding artists will be performed by acclaimed singer Cindy Paley\, accompanied by Miamon Miller (violin)\, Isaac Sadigursky (accordion)\, and Zinovy Goro (clarinet).\n\n \nDON’T MISS THIS WONDERFUL MUSICAL EVENT!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n WHEN:  Sunday\, May 6\, 3 PM\n \nװוּ׃  WHERE:  Santa Monica Synagogue\, 1448 18th St. \nSanta Monica (at Broadway)\n \n\nװיפֿל׃  ADMISSION:  $18 General              $16 Members\n\n\n                   $5   \nFT Students\n\n\n \nFREE PARKING     REFRESHMENTS\n \nRSVP:  ciycl@yiddishi.org      310-745-1190\n\n \nCo-sponsored by the Santa Monica Synagogue\nSupported in part by\nRuth Ziegler Foundation\nBaran Family Foundation\nNurit & Rick Amdur\nWebstation One\nand Friends and Members of CIYCL

SUMMARY:Jewish Memory and Yiddish Heritage -- Two Takes: Elie Wiesel and I.B. Singer
DESCRIPTION:Only through memories can the present and past be bridged\, and for Eli Wiesel\, Yiddish is integral in conjuring up the past of Holocaust victims\, Jewish martyrs\, and the glorified religious life of traditional Jews. \nI.B. Singer insists likewise in his Nobel Lecture:\n“(Yiddish) was the tongue of martyrs and saints\, of dreamers and Kabbalists – rich in humor and in memories that mankind may never forget.  In a figurative way\, Yiddish is the wise and humble language of us all\, the idiom of a frightened and hopeful humanity.” \nThese two influential Jewish writers had totally different philosophies.\nDon’t miss this unique and fascinating talk by Prof. Hirose\, one of the world’s leading experts on Jewish literature and I.B. Singer in particular. \n\n\nProf. Yoshiji Hirose is Chairman of the English Dept. at Notre Dame Seishin University in Okayama\, Japan\, and the author recently of Yiddish Tradition and Innovation in Modern Jewish American Writers.  To view his 2016 talk for CIYCL on “The Unsung Japanese Hero Who Saved Thousands of Jews”\, click here. \n\n\n װו      LOCATION:\nSanta Monica Synagogue    \n1448 18th Street    Santa Monica \nװען       WHEN       \n Sunday\, August 13\,   4 – 5:30 PM \n װיפֿל    ADMISSION*:        \n$ 10  General    \n$ 8  CIYCL & SMS Members \nFree to Full-time students \nRefreshments\nFree Parking \nTO RSVP:\nciycl@yiddishi.org\n310-745-1190

SUMMARY:Three Nights. Three Concerts. Celebrating the Renewal of Jewish Life in Poland.
DESCRIPTION:October 19 (Temple Aliyah\, Woodland Hills)\nOctober 22 (Torrance Cultural Arts Center)\nOctober 23 (Temple Beth Israel\, Pomona) \nJewish Renewal in Poland is proud to present three concert events in the Los Angeles area featuring Cantor and Holocaust survivor David S. Wisnia accompanied by his grandson Avi Wisnia\, with contemporary Polish cantors Rivka Foremniak and Menachem Mirski. The concerts will benefit the work of the Friends of Jewish Renewal in Poland.  \nAbout The Program: \nThe concerts will showcase Cantor David S. Wisnia\, a 90-year-old survivor of the Auschwitz Concentration Camp. As a Polish youth\, Wisnia sang in the famed Tlumacke Synagogue with renown Cantors Gershon Serota and Moshe Kussovitsky. He continued to use his voice during World War II and his internment in Auschwitz\, leading to his ultimate survival. Wisnia’s broad ranging repertoire connects Poland’s Jewish musical past with the country’s current emerging moment of Jewish renewal. (www.onevoicetwolives.com) \nDavid Wisnia’s grandson\, singer-songwriter Avi Wisnia\, will accompany his grandfather during the concerts as well as perform his own original music\, with influences ranging from liturgy to contemporary jazz (www.aviwisnia.com)\, keeping the Jewish musical tradition alive\, from generation to generation. During the program\, the Wisnias will also recount their recent travels to Poland\, performing in Warsaw\, and teaching at Beit Warszawa. http://rabbibeliakblog.org/david-wisnia-88-child-prodigy-auschwitz-survivor-cantor-joined-by-grandson-avi/  \nThe program also features Rivka Foremniak and Menachem Mirski\, popular prayer leaders in Beit Polska’s community of lay cantors. The two visitors from Warsaw and Gdansk\, respectively\, are among the ten prayer leaders trained by the lay cantor’s program originated by Princess Irina zu Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg (http://rabbibeliakblog.org/lay-prayer-leaders-shatzcantor-development/). Menachem Mirski’s musical repertoire includes cantorial music as well as a unique niche of Polish-Jewish Klezmer music. \nHazzan Michael Stein of Temple Aliyah in Woodland Hills is the director of the lay cantor’s program\, having visited Poland twice recently to teach. Stein is one of the producers of a new posthumous album of Theodore Bikel’s music and wisdom\, While I’m Here. The late Theodore Bikel was an animating spirit in Jewish Renewal in Poland. These concerts will also celebrate the release of this album. \n(http://www.jewishrenewalinpoland.org/programs/prayerleaders/) (http://rabbibeliakblog.org/concert-of-mike-stein-beit-warszawa/) \nCantor Paul Buch is an ordained cantor and the leader of Temple Beth Israel of Pomona’s musical life. His music brings joy to the Pomona and San Gabriel Valleys where he hosts Jewish musical events for the entire community and leads worship. Temple Beth Israel is the first congregation to twin with Beit Warszawa. (http://rabbibeliakblog.org/twinning/). \nEthnomusicologist Neal Brostoff has been active in teaching the lay cantors and arranging the three benefit concerts and the program notes. Additional musical support at the performances will be provided by instrumentalists from the UCLA undergraduate jazz program and the Thelonious Monk Institute. \nConcerts Sponsored by: Jewish Renewal in Poland/Beit Polska\, Temple Aliyah of Woodland Hills\, Torrance Cultural Arts Center\, Temple Beth Israel of Pomona\, and the UCLA Mickey Katz Endowed Chair in Jewish Music \nAbout Jewish Renewal in Poland: \nWe are fostering a vibrant renewal of Judaism in Poland. Working together\, the Friends of Jewish Renewal in Poland along with the World Union for Progressive Judaism and the European Union for Progressive Judaism are opening the doors of Judaism to many of Poland’s estimated 200\,000 potential Jews and building the framework for renewed religious life. Our outreach programs focus on educating individuals and helping them build Progressive religious communities\, or havurot\, which are incipient congregations. So far we have established havurot in numerous Polish cities. Some are on their way to becoming congregations. Jewish Renewal in Poland embraces continuity with the Jewish past in Poland. \nTickets & Concert Information: \nOctober 19 at Temple Aliyah\n6025 Valley Circle Blvd.\, Woodland Hills\, CA 91367\njewishpolandandconcertaliyah.eventbrite.com \nOctober 22 at Torrance Cultural Arts Center\n3330 Civic Center Drive\, Torrance\, CA 90503\n310-781-7171 or www.torrancearts.org \nOctober 23 at Temple Beth Israel\n3033 Towne Ave. Pomona\, CA 91767\nJewishpolandconcerttbi.eventbrite.com
