L.A. debut! This intergenerational collaboration of young local musicians and musical legends features international singing star Hedva Amrani, a rare appearance by visionary jazz pioneer and cellist Fred Katz, and Sol Zim (the "Tom Jones" of cantorial music). Backed by a house band led by L.A. guitarist David Green, and including celebrated musicians David Goodwin, DJ Bonebrake, and Mike Bolger, this evening of song is not to be missed! Presented in association with the Idelsohn Society for Musical Preservation.

JUST ANNOUNCED! Legendary singer Johnny Mathis will take the stage at the Jews on Vinyl Revue concert to accept an award from the Idelsohn Society for Musical Preservation. Mathis will retell the lost story of how he came to record fifty years ago his belting version of “Kol Nidre,” the Aramaic prayer song traditionally recited at the beginning of the Jewish holiday of Yom Kippur.
