Israeli – Jewish online music session, connecting two communities across the ocean: Tefilat Haadam congregation in Casearia and Leo Back Centre in Melbourne Eastern suburbs

We invite you for joint listening to contemporary Israeli music followed by group discussion. The Israeli musical creation is forever surprising. It is dynamic, original, diverse and “kicking”. During 5 sessions we will get to know contemporary young musicians and the irmusic, listen to their songs, watch video clips, and get familiar with the mode of contemporary creativity.

Dates: 4 May / 18 May / 15 June / 29 June / 13 July
The sessions will last about an hour and will take place on zoom 12:00 PM Israel time / 7 PM Melbourne time.
B’yachad: LBC's singing group (in-person, held off-site)

June 15, 2023 at 8:00 pm - 9:30 pm
Kiddush Hall - Contact Kathy for more information - kathy@deutsch.net.au.

Meets 1^stand 3^rd Thursdays from 8pm – 9.30 pm. Contact is Kathy Deutsch kathy@deutsch.net.au. Gold coin donation.

If singing with others is your idea of fun, you might like to come along to B’yachad (Hebrew for ‘together’). We meet fortnightly on a Thursday evening and learn songs in Hebrew, Yiddish, Ladino and Russian. You don’t need language or singing skills to join in, just a love of Jewish music. We are led by a piano accordionist and mostly just sing for our own enjoyment. We do however occasionally sing at Jewish old age homes (Russian songs got added into our repertoire as a result of requests from residents), at Boroondara singing events and at the odd fund-raiser. Want to know more? Email Kathy at kathy@deutsch.net.au

We follow COVID rules as recommended for singers by DHHS.
