SUMMARY:Prepare My Prayer with Rabbi Roly Matalon
DESCRIPTION:Join Rabbi Roly Matalon to study and discuss the inspirational sources and suggestions in Rabbi Dov Singer’s book Prepare My Prayer: Recipes to Awaken the Soul. \n“The main purpose of the book is to expand the idea of prayer beyond the known boundaries of the synagogue and the prayer book\, and to look at the different faces of prayer and its reflections in reality. To awaken the inner spring from which prayer flows and to rejuvenate the words printed in the prayer book. To revive the set prayers\, and to discover the prayers that are not printed in the prayer book. To recognize prayer as a kind of state of being\, of presence\, in which a praying person stands before that which is Presence itself\, and strengthens the awareness of the beating heart of the world.” \nRabbi Dov Singer\, head of Yeshivat Makor Chaim and the Study Center for Renewal\, is an educational innovator and a leader of the modern Israeli revival of Hassidut. \nFor BJ members only. \n \nParticipants are required to purchase Rabbi Dov Singer’s book to follow along with during the class.

SUMMARY:Melaveh Malkah of Ladino Song
DESCRIPTION:As Shabbat Shirah (the Shabbat of Song) comes to a close\, join Spanish vocalist Lara Bello\, BJ Music Director Dan Nadel\, and percussionist Satoshi Takeishi for an evening of exquisite Ladino songs.  \nJoin on Facebook\, BJ Livestream\, or BJ YouTube. \nLara Bello is one of the most well-known world music artists specializing in Spanish and Ladino repertoire. Born in Granada\, Spain\, she studied classical singing and violin at the Royal Conservatory of Granada\, while also training in flamenco\, Spanish folk singing\, and dance. Her first album\, “Niña Pez\,” debuted in 2009 and Lara was voted Best Spanish Artist by the World Music Charts Europe in 2010. Her second album\, “First Yellow then Purple\,” which introduced her to the US\, won critical acclaim from NPR\, CNN\, CCTV-America\, and People Magazine. In 2017\, Bello released her latest album “SIKAME\,” celebrating the common African roots of jazz and flamenco. Bello has performed at Aga Khan Museum (Toronto)\, Kennedy Center (Washington\, DC)\, Beijing Ninegates International Festival\, and the Palace of Congress (Granada\, Spain). \nDan Nadel is an Israeli-born\, New York-based guitarist and composer\, whose personal style combines flamenco\, jazz\, and Middle Eastern influences. He is a bandleader\, a solo performing artist\, and a collaborator with Tavche Gravche\, his multinational neo-Balkan group. A busy musician on the New York scene\, Nadel has also worked with many world-renowned artists\, including jazz musicians Chico Freeman\, Dave Liebman\, and Anat Fort; Israeli-French pop star Yael Naïm; jazz vocalist Gabrielle Stravelli; opera soloists Chen Reiss and Audrey Majzlin; and genre-crossing musicians from around the world such as Frank London\, Ismail Lumanovski\, Souren Baronian\, and Satoshi Takeishi. Nadel attended the jazz program at the prestigious Thelma Yellin High School of the Arts\, before completing his three-year army duty\, during which he was the guitarist for the IDF’s Air Force Band. He is a graduate of the B.F.A. Jazz program at The New School in New York City. Dan is the Music Director at B’nai Jeshurun. \nSatoshi Takeishi is a native of Mito\, Japan. While at Berklee College of Music in Boston\, MA\, he developed an interest in the music of South America and went to live in Colombia following the invitation of a friend. He spent four years there and forged many musical and personal relationships. One of the projects he worked on while in Colombia was “Macumbia” with composer/arranger Francisco Zumaque in which traditional\, jazz\, and classical music were combined. With this group he performed with the Bogota symphony orchestra to do a series of concerts honoring the music of the most popular composer in Colombia\, Lucho Bermudes. In 1986 he returned to the U.S. in Miami where he began work as an arranger. In 1987 he produced Morning Ride for jazz flutist Nestor Torres on Polygram Records. His interest expanded to the rhythms and melodies of the middle east where he studied and performed with Armenian-American oud master Joe Zeytoonian. Since moving to New York in 1991 he has performed and recorded with many musicians such as Ray Barretto\, Carlos “Patato” Valdes\, Eliane Elias\, Marc Johnson\, Eddie Gomez\, Randy Brecker\, Dave Liebman\, Anthony Braxton\, Mark Murphy\, Herbie Mann\, Paul Winter Consort\, Rabih Abu Khalil\, Toshiko Akiyoshi Big Band\, Erik Friedlander\, and Pablo Ziegler.

SUMMARY:Beyond Tu Bishvat: Environmental Justice
DESCRIPTION:This Tu Bishvat\, we are expanding our understanding of what it means to be stewards of the earth to include how our actions disproportionately impact oppressed communities. Building on the work of the BJ Environmental Advocates and the BJ Teen Executive Board Tzedek (Social Justice) Project\, join us for a night to deepen our understanding of why equity and justice are important for the environmental movement. \nOur program will follow the themes and rituals around the four cups of wine of the Tu Bisvhat seder. Through moments of intention setting and hearing from our panelists who are deeply engaged in this work\, we will bring participants along a journey from internal reflection on how we can have an impact to thinking about our collective community power for change. \nRegister for Zoom Link\nPanelists: Rabbi Isaiah Rothstein\, Rabbinic Scholar and Public Affairs Advisor at The Jewish Federations of North America; Carlos Garcia\, Energy Planner at NYC-EJA; Peggy Shepard\, co-founder and executive director of WE ACT for Environmental Justice \nBJ is proud to be hosting this event as part of Hazon’s Big Bold Jewish Climate Fest.

SUMMARY:Everyday Moral Dilemmas
DESCRIPTION:Wednesdays with Hadar—Unit 3 \nEveryday Moral Dilemmas with Rabbi Avi Strausberg \nWrestle with everyday moral dilemmas\, the sorts of which we each encounter all of the time in our lives\, through the lens of traditional Jewish texts. In this course\, we’ll consider questions like: “If and when is it okay to shame someone else for the sake of protecting another\,” and “Are there instances in which it is not only permissible to lie but in fact necessary?” \nWe’ll pose these everyday moral dilemmas to classic Jewish sources and see what\, if any wisdom\, they have to offer us when confronted with these questions. In doing so\, we’ll attempt to not only answer the dilemmas before us but suggest a model for what it might look like to turn to Jewish texts for guidance on pressing questions of our times. \nThis unit is free for BJ members\, and $60 for non-members. \n \n
