You're listening to some of the beautiful music on this program!
And here some more!
“Soundscapes of Modernity: Jews and Music in Polish Cities” presents music of Polish Jews that is little known to American audiences—choral pieces from 19th-century progressive (“Reform”) congregations, compositions associated with Jewish music societies, and avant-garde works by Jewish composers.

Recently performed at Rutgers University, "Soundscapes of Modernity" was enthusiastically received: “[The concert] was quite brilliant and reminded me not only of how much I love listening to live musical performances but also of how music can be an important window into a complex and contested past.”
Join us for this fantastic exploration of Jewish music
in 19th- and 20th-century Polish cities
