My Goat Is On the Roof ~ A new concert with Polina Shepherd
My Goat Is On The Roof
with Polina Shepherd
"Singer Polina Shepherd combines virtuoso vocal talent with raw emotional delivery. She plumbs energy from the same archetypical sources that make blues and flamenco singing so powerful."
--Portuguese American Journal
My Goat is on the Roof is about beauty in the heart surrounded by madness in the world, a mixture of original, classical, and folk songs mainly in Yiddish and Russian, including a few world premieres.
This new, multi-lingual, multi-cultural, and multi-faceted weave of songs will take you on a deep emotional journey. Attention: the concert is interactive and you may find yourself singing and clapping along!
Sponsored by the Yiddish Committee of Boston Workmens Circle; don't miss this opportunity to experience Polina's music in the intimate setting of Third Life Studio! Due to the intimate size of the space, advance tickets are encouraged. Any remaining tickets will be available at the door (cash only).
________________________________________________
Polina Shepherd (Skovoroda) was born in Siberia and grew up in a home where songs were regularly sung at a family table. Now an internationally renowned performer, she brings the songs of the Steppes and the Shtetl up to date with passion and haunting soul. Her singing, though based on traditional forms, cuts a unique sound deeply rooted in east European Jewish and Russian folk sound. Growing up in Tatarstan also placed her close to Islamic ornamentation and timbre which can be heard in her unique vocal style and four octave range.
Now based in the UK, Polina continues to travel the world performing solo, as a trio with Sklamberg & The Shepherds, and with many other bands and projects.
