Part of the EJC Havdallah Cafe Series: Through lecture and song, Cantor Eyal Bitton examines various elements of Moroccan sacred music - synagogue song, cantillation of sacred texts, the piyut (liturgical poetry), and life cycle songs. Moroccan Jews have a very rich and proud religious culture, and a varied and ancient musical tradition, reflecting its Moroccan milieu, its Andalusian heritage, and more. This is a free lecture. Open to the public, all ages. Please register:
