Sing Out, Fight Back!
inspired by the 75th Anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising

Sunday, December 23, 2:45pm to 4:00pm

Town and Village Synagogue, 334 East 14th Street, New York City

This concert is generously cosponsored by The Workmen's Circle, Jewish
Currents, and Camp Kinderland.

A Besere Velt (A Better World) Boston Workmen’s Circle Yiddish Community
Chorus, conducted by Derek David, 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.
