To God's Ears

In a post on July 19, Cantor Shapiro Selected for Vatican Concert in November,  we reported that the spiritual leader of Congregation Adas Emuno, Cantor Kerith Spencer-Shapiro, was one of 20 Americans Reform Jewish Cantors chosen to give a concert promoting Catholic-Jewish dialogue in the Vatican in Rome next month.  Here now is a short video about that upcoming event:





And here is the description accompanying the video over on Vimeo:

“To God’s Ears” is the journey of twenty Reform Jewish Cantors from the United States to perform a concert in an ancient Roman Basilica, just miles away from the Vatican. The Concert will take place on November 16, 2010.


The Jewish Cantors will sing healing songs from Liturgical and Biblical verses in one of the Catholic Church’s most ancient buildings. This sacred concert is an expression by the Jewish Cantors to the Catholic Church acknowledging the past while forgiving and forging vibrantly and melodically into the future. These Jewish Cantors will sing from their mouths “To God’s Ears”. This is a 501(c)(3)non-profit Documentary film, For more information please contact Allan McBride 323 650 3900 ext 303 mcbride@mcbride.com

The performance will truly be nothing short of divine!
