Yom HaAtzmaut 5781 – An Israeli Shabbat
A celebration of the pioneers of Israeli music in prayer and song
To celebrate Yom HaAtzmaut 5781 the Luxembourg Friends of Progressive Judaism in Israel and Arzenu invite you to a special Israel-themed Friday night service and concert on 23 April 2021, at 7 pm.
The golden era of Israeli music emerged as Israel was just taking her first steps as a young country. Poets and composers such as Nathan Alterman, Moshe Vilensky, Mordechai Zaira, Chayim Chefer, David Zehavi, Sasha Argov & Mati Caspi were like salt of the earth who combined lyric and melody, thus creating the musical background to Israel’s early pioneering days.
The concert will be streamed on Zoom and Youtube. Connection details will be sent closer to the date. You can also attend it in person at the synagogue of the Liberal Jewish Community of Luxembourg (Esch-Alzette) – please register by contacting us.
The concert is free of charge (courtesy of Arzenu: www.arzenu.org).
