Lilith,
the adult alternate Jewish story of creation, a magical folk opera by
instrumentalists Veretski Pass in collaboration with the San Francisco Choral
Artists. The group of virtuosic multi-instrumentalists, Veretski
Pass, brings together Jewish and
non-Jewish sounds from across Europe to the Osher Marin JCC’s Kanbar Center
on Thursday, May 1 @ 7:30.
The extraordinary and
often bizarre score to Lilith, composed by award-winning composer, Josh
Horowitz, features both choral and instrumental ensembles as well as Heather
Klein (Lilith), Anthony Russell (Adam), and Michael Wex (narrator).
The
edgy and humorous libretto draws on texts gleaned from Jewish superstitions,
omens, dreams, and curses. San Francisco Choral Artists, a chamber ensemble of
24 singers, is widely recognized as one of the finest choral ensembles on the
West Coast. The production is directed by Magen Solomon, artistic
director of the Choral Artists
