The Jewish Fantasy: A Musical Program with the Pozez JCC of Northern Virginia

February 8 @ 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm

Step into the warmth, charm, and spirit of Jewish musical culture!

“The Jewish Fantasy” is a unique two-hour interactive concert that invites audiences to experience beloved melodies, learn new stories, and even take part in the performance itself.

Part I – “The Jewish Suite”

The first half of the program features four movements inspired by the world-famous musical “Fiddler on the Roof.” Original themes from the musical blend with other traditional Jewish melodies, presented in fresh and expressive new arrangements.

Guests will also have the chance to learn a traditional Jewish dance and join in the live music-making of several popular tunes.

Part II – Songs Across Borders and Time

The second half of the program presents beloved and contemporary songs in Hebrew, Yiddish, and English — including “Jerusalem of Gold,” “Tumbalalaika,” “Hava Nagila”, and more — along with engaging stories about their origins and meaning.

This uplifting program invites teens (13+) and adults to explore the richness of Jewish heritage through music.
