Sing Out, Fight Back! - A Besere Velt Chorus!
The renowned Boston Workmens Circle Yiddish Community Chorus, A Besere Velt (A Better World), is an intergenerational Yiddish chorus that weaves the heartache and irrepressible idealism of Yiddish folk music into a vision of justice and humanity for the 21st century. From haunting melodies to workers anthems, the songs come alive with multi-layered harmonies. A Besere Velt's repertoire grew out of the shtetls, the sweatshops and union meetings, the camps and ghettos. These songs contain the sounds of the history, the culture, and the progressive values that have influenced generations and continue to inspire us today. This special concert is entitled "Sing Out, Fight Back" and is inspired by the 75th Anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising. A Besere Velt is led by conductor Derek David. This concert is cosponsored by the Workmen's Circle, Jewish Currents, and Camp Kinderland.
