SUMMARY:Echoes of Jerusalem
DESCRIPTION:Echoes of Jerusalem: An Evening of Jewish Spiritual Music\nAbout the Concert\nJoin us for Echoes of Jerusalem\, an evening of Jewish spiritual music featuring Baltimore-based artists Yitz Smilowitz and Yedidya Safren. Rooted in kumzitz\, niggunim\, heartfelt storytelling and contemporary Jewish soulfulness\, this special performance will create space for reflection\, connection and inspiration through music. \nYedidya Safren In Concert\nWant a sneak peak of the concert? Check out clips Yedidya’s performances: \nhttps://mmae.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/Yitzchok-Smilowitz.mp4\nAbout The Performers\nYitz Smilowitz is a Baltimore-based artist rooted in the world of kumzitz and intimate Jewish song. For him\, music is its own emotional language — a way of staying connected to the pure\, hopeful\, childlike place in the heart that still knows wonder\, yearning\, love and trust. Through soft singing and gentle playing\, Yitzchok creates space for people to feel held\, connected and free: free to meet joy\, longing\, doubt\, pain\, mystery and comfort together. His music is less about performance and more about presence — letting the heart speak more loudly than the mind\, and letting a niggun carry what words alone cannot. \nYedidya Safren is a Baltimore-based singer-songwriter whose music blends Jewish spirituality\, heartfelt storytelling\, and a diverse musical palette. Raised on the melodies and teachings of Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach\, he developed a deep connection to music early in life. Carlebach’s songs and stories inspired him to pick up a guitar at sixteen\, setting him on a path that would shape both his artistic and spiritual journey. As he navigated life’s challenges\, music became a source of comfort\, faith\, and self-expression. Drawing inspiration from artists such as Moshav\, Soulfarm\, the Grateful Dead\, and Pink Floyd\, he developed a sound that combines traditional Jewish soulfulness with contemporary folk\, rock\, and improvisational textures. Yedidya’s songs and performances are centered on creating meaningful experiences that foster connection\, reflection\, and spiritual growth. Grounded in faith and authenticity\, his work reflects a belief in the power of a simple melody to bring people together\, uplift the spirit\, and open the door to something beyond itself. \nWhen: Tuesday\, June 30\, 7:30pm\nWhere: The Katz Music Center at MMAE\nTickets: $15 in advance\, $20 at the door \nPlease note this event is BYOB. \nSee more upcoming programs on our Events page.
