1 July 2007, 8pmKol Isha The voices of women sing praise to the Almighty
For the first time in Britain, the beautiful voices of women will be heard singing Jewish psalms and prayers in a groundbreaking concert on Sunday 1 July.
Britain's first and newly ordained cantor, Jaclyn Chernett of Kol Nefesh Masorti Synagogue, Edgware is joined by Josée Wolff, the first woman from the European continent to be ordained Cantor at the School of Sacred Music at Hebrew Union College, New York (where she now teaches).

Dr Alexander Knapp will accompany them on piano and organ. Having worked with cantors from all over the world, he says: 'This event is a landmark in proclaiming to all sections of the Jewish community and beyond that Kol Isha is spiritual communication through music'.
The concert at 8.00pm on Sunday 1 July takes place in the beautiful sanctuary of the Liberal Jewish Synagogue, St John's Wood. There will be a pre-concert talk on the role of women's voices in religious Judaism throughout history by another woman playing an important role in Jewish music, Dr Abigail Wood, who is now the Joe Loss Lecturer in Jewish Music, SOAS, University of London.

A Yiddishe Winterreise
Mark Glanville bass baritone
Alexander Knapp piano
Premiere of a specially devised programme of songs from the Yiddish repertoire
to replicate the emotional and physical journey through a bleak landscape
undertaken by the hero of Schubert's original cycle. The specific
context is the Holocaust; the performer, a former badkhn (wedding
singer), is first heard a capella, singing a traditional Yiddish
wedding song off-stage. He is in flight from his shtetl which has recently
been destroyed together with his family. In the course of the cycle he
reflects on his life, loves, work and religion there. Central to
the performance will be a rendition of 'Der Lindenbaum' one of the best-loved
songs of the Schubertian original, translated into Yiddish. The cycle
will end with a Kaddish sung in Ashkenazic pronunciation. This concert
will emphasise a paradox - the deep affection and respect so many
Jews felt and still feel for the culture of the people who were ultimately
to turn on them with such devastating consequences, a culture to which
they have also made such an important contribution.

Simcha on the Square will be a celebration of British, Jewish
culture in Trafalgar Square on 17 September 2006 from 1.00pm to 7.00pm.
It forms part of a year-long programme of events marking the 350th anniversary
of Jewish life in Britain. London's residents and visitors of all backgrounds
will be able to taste delicious Jewish food from borscht to blintzes
from the City's top kosher eateries including Grodzinski's and Bevis Marks
Restaurant; to view market stalls and exhibitions; to see a wide ranging
stage show of music, song and dance and to witness the Shofar Moment
at around 2pm – a mass blast on the ancient Shofar (Rams Horn) by
adults and children from many communities across Britain.
'Simcha' is a Hebrew and Yiddish word for a party or a wedding - literally
meaning ‘joy’.
Simcha on the Square has been developed by the Jewish Music Institute and other Jewish culture organisations, together with the Mayor's Office and with the support of the Mayor of London, as a positive and dynamic way to communicate appreciation of the Jewish community's contribution to London and to give greater visibility to Jewish music and culture and its value to London's diversity.

Dreamlives
7/8/14/15th May 2006, 8pm
Songs by contemporaries of Freud Julia Sporsén: soprano Sergey
Rybin: piano Directed by Sebastian Harcombe
Dreamlives is a haunting Freudian narrative woven from lyrical,
late romantic lieder, enhanced by an evocative Klimt-inspired staging
that leaves an indelible memory. A young woman, arranging roses in a vase,
pricks her finger on a thorn. Watching as a ruby droplet of blood blossoms
on her skin she falls into a reverie of broken dreams, buried fantasies
and deep desires… a programme to commemorate the 150 th anniversary
of Freud’s birth.
‘Ravishing and seductive. The perfect initiation into the wild and
wonderful world of lieder’ James Dreyfus (Radio 4). ‘Julia
Sporsén is hugely impressive’ Neil Fisher (The Times)
