See Joey Weisenberg and the Rising Song Ensemble live on May 18, 7 p.m. at the Robert E. Parilla Performing Arts Center in Rockville, MD. Weisenberg, founder of Hadar’s Rising Song Institute, is known for his original niggunim, wordless melodies, that draw both from ancient traditions and the American soundscape. His masterclasses and singing circles regularly sell out. Come for the power of communal singing, spontaneous harmonies, and spirituality that sometimes require that we leave the words behind and allow the music to transport us! Tickets are $54 plus fees.
