Event details: The 9th Annual San Diego Jewish Music Festival
Description
The 9th Annual San Diego Jewish Music Festival, sponsored by U.S. Trust, Bank of America Private Wealth Management and presented by the San Diego Center for Jewish Culture continues with the Afula Conservatory Symphonic Band & Choir: Celebrating Israel @ 60 on March 30 at 6:00 p.m. in the David & Dorothea Garfield Theatre at the Lawrence Family Jewish Community Center, JACOBS FAMILY CAMPUS, 4126 Executive Drive, La Jolla. The concert is presented in collaboration with the United Jewish Federation Israel Center.
âWeâre honored to have these young musicians travel so far to share their talents with us,â said Music Festival Chair Roselyn Pappelbaum. âThe evening will also continue the celebration of Israelâs 60th Anniversary by honoring San Diego residents who have contributed to the building of Israel.â
The Afula Conservatory Symphonic Band and Choir, founded 30 years ago in the northern Israeli city of Afula, consists of 55 instrumentalists and 15 singers, ages 14 to 18. The talented young musicians participate regularly in municipal cultural events as well as at national conventions and competitions. In recent years, the Orchestra and Choir have visited the United States and Canada. Their 2008 tour will include 9 cities. Their performances include Israeli music as well as the standard classics.
The stories of San Diego âBuilders of Israelâ will be told in a United Jewish Federation Israel Center book which will be distributed at the end of the evening. This project celebrates the contributions San Diego residents have made to the State of Israel and its people. These remarkable individuals have built a connection between Israel and themselves that serve as an inspiration to the entire community.
$15 for members and $19 for non-members, with a $1 discount for seniors and students.
