Basya Schechter has been a creative force in Jewish music and life for the past two decades. From her groundbreaking world music ensemble Pharaoh's Daughter, to her Songs of Wonder project which sets the Yiddish poetry of Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel to stunning neo-hasidic compositions, to her Hazzanut for the Romemu community in NYC-Basya is a vital wellspring of song and spirit.

For this performance, Basya will be performing songs from her beloved Pharaoh's Daughter project, as well as from Darshan, a genre-bending collaboration with polymathic poet and rapper Eden Pearlstein (ePRHYME). Inspired by Jewish mystical traditions, Darshan breathes new life into ancient Hebrew and Aramaic sources through a combination of Poetic/Rap Commentary and Musical Midrash, creatively transforming classic Jewish texts and prayers into a truly unique form of Sacred Pop Art.

Together they will be sharing songs from their two albums RAZA, a radical reimagining of the mystical poetry of Kabbalat Shabbat, and SONGS FROM THE VOID, a cycle of songs inspired by the paradigm-shifting teachings of Rebbe Nachman of Breslov. Tickets are $10 in advance. Tickets increase to $15 on the day of the concert and will be available at the door. We accept cash, check, and credit cards.
