Join Kirtan Rabbi, Rabbi Andrew Hahn, this Friday, March 19th at 6pm for an improvisational and participatory experience that is suited for both adults and children. Kirtan (also known as Bhajan) is a form of chant developed in India to heighten participation, communal feeling and ecstatic communion with the divine. Its usual, distinguishing feature is a formula of singing based on call-and-response. The chant facilitator offers something and then the participants return the favor. As Rabbi Hahn likes to say, We don’t sing many words, but we sing them many times! See calendar for log in information and links to more info about Rabbi Hahn www.beth-david.org/calendar
