The Hevreh Ensemble has been called “strikingly original and spiritually uplifting”.

Their new CD: “Dance of the Sheydim” was recently released. Listen to some of the short clips on our recordings page.

 

From our Presenters

“ Their music evoked the High Holiday Themes of introspection, reflection, personal accountability and solemn joy” - Rabbi Deborah Zecher, Hevreh of Southern Berkshire

“The moment the music began, we were all transfixed ...”    “This group has a magic and we are endeavoring to bring them back to perform again!”- The Reverend Eileen L. Epperson- Pastor

“The Hevreh Ensemble’s performance was simply wonderful. It was lively, engaging and well suited for our audience.”

“Working with you was a great experience and I hope the Hevreh Ensemble can return to the Museum soon.” - Maria Dembrowsky, Manager of Public Programs- The Hudson River Museum
