A sell out crowd in Palo Alto proclaims this concert a must-see event: internationally-acclaimed Klezmer Band Veretski Pass in concert with San Francisco Choral Artists. Together they present an innovative program of Jewish music from the last 2000 years: psalms, folksongs, dances and lullabies expressed through the fusion of chamber choir and Klezmer band. You'll hear improvisation, three world premieres, settings of traditional Jewish texts, lively dance music and sonorous a cappella harmonies.
