Congregation Kol Tikvah announces an enriching weekend event with the acclaimed Danny Maseng serving as the Artist/Scholar-in-Residence for 2024.
Maseng, 74, of Los Angeles, has had a long-established film, television, and Broadway career. His profound connection to Jewish liturgical music makes him a compelling figure in contemporary Jewish culture.
His unique ability to blend traditional themes with modern sensibilities has earned him acclaim worldwide. Attendees can look forward to a weekend full of rejuvenation, inspiration, and community connection.
Sponsored by the congregation’s Adult Education Committee, Brotherhood, and Sisterhood, this event promises to be a spiritually uplifting tapestry of Jewish music and learning, offering the community a unique opportunity to engage in deep cultural and religious experiences.
Starting on Friday, February 23, 2024, the weekend will feature events designed to inspire and rejuvenate attendees through prayer, music, and education.
Friday Night’s Visionary Experience
Kicking off at 7:30 p.m. with special Shabbat Services led by Maseng, attendees will be transported to the mystical era of the 18th century Tsfat (Safed) as he weaves his glorious liturgical music into the Kabbalat Shabbat service. This promises to be an evocative journey back in time, inviting participants to explore the depths of their faith and spirituality through Maseng’s inspired renditions.
Saturday Morning’s Intellectual Feast
On Saturday, February 24, at 8:45 a.m., the congregation is invited to “Bagels and Bible,” where Maseng will present. This session offers a rare opportunity to delve into biblical texts with the guidance of his insightful interpretations, accompanied by the comfort of bagels in a warm, communal setting.
A Musical Night to Remember
The weekend’s highlight will be the musical performance on Saturday at 7:00 p.m. Maseng will showcase his exceptional talent as an Israeli actor, singer, and composer of Contemporary Jewish Liturgical Music. This performance is set to be a profound experience, aiming to foster peace, beauty, love, joy, and understanding through a spiritually uplifting tapestry of Jewish music and learning.
