Taste of Passover

[HNetsky <HNetsky...>]

Dear Friends,  
Boston's Museum of Fine Arts, Film Program, will be giving a special 
screening of A Taste of Passover on Sunday, April 16, 7:15 PM,  followed by a 
reception with live music. For tickets, please call (617) 369-3395.  A Taste 
of Passover was made possible thanks to generous support from WGBH Television 
and New England Conservatory and this screening has also received their 
generous support.
Kindly pass this e mail to as many friends as possible so that we can have a 
great turnout for this event.  

Join us for a unique film special-- a musical feast in celebration of 
Passover!  A Taste of Passover, a concert extravaganza, is hosted by 
internationally renowned Broadway actor/singer Theodore Bikel, and also 
features New York Cantor David Levine, Yiddishist Harriet Chasia Segal, and 
over 150 musicians for Boston?s New England Conservatory.  Crafted by 
artistic director Hankus Netsky, founder and director of the world famous 
Klezmer Conservatory Band, this program involves sacred, traditional, 
uplifting music as well as favorite Passover drinking songs, silly seder 
songs in home spun and concert versions.  A Taste of Passover also includes 
witty commentary written by humorist Moshe Waldoks, a demonstration on how to 
make the perfect matzo ball, and the sounds of a gospel choir, klezmer band, 
orchestra, children?s chorus, and soloists from New England Conservatory, all 
in an intimate atmosphere of humor and festivity.

A Taste of Passover was filmed before a live audience in Jordan Hall at New 
England Conservatory, a National Landmark, by Director Juan Mandelbaum and 
Executive Producer Gerald Slavet.  It is a product of Concert Productions., 
Inc. and Geovision.

Hope we see you there.
Jerry Slavet
