Tandu Concert - March 2021

On Sunday, March 14th, 2021, Beth Israel hosted the Jerusalem ensemble band Tandu for a mid-day concert that drew over 100 registrants!

Through a mix of performance and reflection on their music Tandu showcased their versatility, offering complex renditions of traditional and contemporary piyyutim (liturgical poetry), original compositions, and  jazzy/pop mash-ups such as "Shabbat ba-boker (Shabbat in the morning) that included Stevie Wonder's "Isn't She Lovely." Yahala Lachmish, also a known Hazzanit,  also wowed participants with her vocal versatility.
