David’s Harp – A Hanukkah Concert and storyteller Isaiah Sheffer, host of Public Radio International's Selected Shorts.
An amazing afternoon of some of the Middle East's most thrilling and scintillating music, featuring the group David’s Harp, that holds many surprises for the audience.
And, of course, Isaiah Sheffer, host of Public Radio International’s Selected Shorts, will open the concert reading a wonderful story from the pen of a great Jewish writer – a tradition of the annual Hanukkah program. David’s Harp is a unique and exotic five-piece ensemble singing and playing santouri, darbuka, keyboard, zills, flute, guitar, mandolin, electric bass daf and violin. Directed by Joseph Alpar, the group offers an exciting program of Sephardic, Israeli, Turkish, Greek, Egyptian, Ottoman, Bukarian and Yemenite songs that have audiences literally "dancing in the aisles"!
