An Evening with David Berkeley
Monday, March 1 at 8 pm
Spend a homey, musical evening with singer-songwriter David Berkeley in an exclusive Zoom concert especially for the Congregation Bet Haverim community.
You may recognize David Berkeley as the writer of the environmental anthem “This Be Dear to Me,” recorded by the CBH chorus and strings for their latest album, Red Thread. A former Atlantan, he has also visited the congregation himself.
In this "house concert,” David will sing songs from his most recent album, Oh Quiet World, which he wrote and recorded in quarantine last year. Will Robertson, a good friend and frequent collaborator, produced and mixed Oh Quiet World. Will says, “David’s songs are a master class in poetry and melody, and his performances are by turns hilarious, thought-provoking, moving, and breathtaking.”
This is an event not to miss.
Please support our music program and the making of Red Thread, in lieu of tickets: Sliding scale $5-72

Is Jewish Music Even A Thing? Lecture by Neal Zaslaw
Monday, March 15 at 7:30 pm
Over the millennia Jews have sung and played music on every continent, surrounded by or alongside innumerable cultures and languages. Unsurprisingly, therefore, Jews of various times and places have considered innumerable types of music to be, or to have become, theirs. Given the astounding diversity involved, can we define or explain the idea of “Jewish music”? If “Jewish music” refers to so many styles, is it even a meaningful category?
Neal Zaslaw grew up on Long Island, earned degrees from Harvard, Juilliard, and Columbia, played flute under Leopold Stokowski, and from 1970 until his retirement last December taught music history at Cornell University. His research focuses on 18th century classical music. A leading Mozart scholar (a New York Times profile once dubbed him “Mr. Mozart”), he oversaw the complete revision of the listing of Mozart’s works, The New Köchel, due out this year. Among his other tomes are one on Mozart symphonies and another tracing the early history of the orchestra. (Full bio here.) Neal is also the loving father of CBH’s Sarah Zaslaw, father-in-law to David Borthwick, and grandfather to Julia and Benjamin. He and his psychologist wife Ellen continue to live in Ithaca, New York.
