Sharon Bernstein: Yiddish Songs At An Exhibition

Sharon Bernstein puts on a unique multi-media performance set (voice and piano) to paintings by self-taught Toronto artist Mayer Kirshenblatt. Mr. Kirshenblatt’s vibrant portraits and stories of his home town Apt (Poland) before the Holocaust inspire a rich blend of traditional song and contemporary sound.  Projected images of the paintings connected with the songs and readings of Mr. Kirshenblatt’s memories complete this experience that recreates the sights and sounds of a Jewish Polish town. For tickets, go to the box office at the GMC or on the first floor of the Student Center, or go online.
