Heartbreak, Consolation & Forgiveness Between the Lines with Rabbi Noa Kushner & Hazzan Asher Levy

  • Contemporary Jewish Museum (CJM) 736 Mission Street San Francisco, CA, 94103 United States (map)

Some look to the horizon, we look to our prayers and stories.

Midrash could be described as the stories that arise between the letters and words of torah. Piyyutim might similarly be described as the sung stories, often poetic, that arise between the prayers of the siddur/prayer book. Both modes take our stories – and us – to uncharted places.

Come and learn with Rabbi Noa Kushner and Hazzan Asher Shasho Levy as we look at some of the key texts of the High Holidays along with the provocative associations and questions, both musical and literary, that the tradition offers to us. Perfect for Elul.

No experience is necessary, you only need a desire to sing, learn & study text.
