The Songs Live On (914)

914The Zamir Chorale of Boston Centennial Tour

In the summer of 1999, the Zamir Chorale of Boston celebrated its thirtieth anniversary as well as the centenary of the Zamir movement with a concert tour of Eastern Europe. Performances were given in synagogues and churches, concert halls and museums, restaurants and courtyards, cemeteries and concentration camps. In Warsaw, Lodz, Auschwitz, Krakow, Prague, Terezin and Vienna we gave honor to the dead and hope to the living. Our live concert recording, The Songs Live On, is a witness to the excitement and spiritual intensity of our odyssey.

Zamir is very proud to present this unique recording comprising selections from our recent European tour. Recorded during live performances in Lodz, Vienna, Prage, Krakow, and Terezin, these songs celebrate the return of Zamir to the land of its birth. Ranging from liturgical settings to popular songs, spanning four centuries, and representing composers from seven countries, our tour repertoire demonstrated the breadth and quality of Jewish music for Jewish and non-Jewish audiences alike. The Songs Live On captures the energy of these live performances and the enthusiasm of both Zamir and our audiences. If you couldn’t join us in Europe, this is your chance to share in the music.

While You’re Home…

Zamir has always been about community. A community of expression. A community of exploration. A community of tradition and innovation. And while we cannot see you in concert, we will bring you music videos and programs that we hope will bring you some relief and perhaps even joy.

We are now posting weekly messages with music that will “delight the soul.” We also are featuring monthly "Zoominars" on various musical topics taught by members of the Zamir musical staff. These one-hour sessions will be held Tuesday evenings at 7:30 PM on Dec. 8, 2020; Jan. 5, 2021; Feb. 2; March 2, April 6, and May 4. Topics TBA. You'll need to sign up for Zamir's email list so that you can register in order to receive the link.
