Elie Wiesel is best known as the one who will not let the world forget…..
But for those of us who live in the world of Jewish music, we know Elie Wiesel
has another voice….the voice of a singer…a lover of Jewish music….a choral
conductor and, most of all, a friend and the honorary president of the Zamir Choral
Foundation.
Those who were at the 2009 North American Jewish Choral Festival will never
forget the moment that Professor Wiesel took the stage, his voice clear, strong,
and poignant as he sang the songs of his youth.
Now you have the opportunity to recapture that moment when you join
Elie Wiesel and The Matthew Lazar Singers and orchestra, live in concert, at
New York’s 92nd Street Y
on Saturday, December 18th for:
Elie Wiesel in Concert: Melodies and Stories from Long Ago
A rare opportunity to see the Nobel Prize-winner, scholar, teacher and
peace advocate in concert!…
