ZHENYA LOPATNIK HEYM UN VEG (BETWEEN HOME AND THE WAY)

Vocalist Zhenya Lopatnik presents Heym Un Veg (Between Home and the Way)

Hailed as the contemporary Jewish “songbird of Ukraine,” Zhenya Lopatnik’s songs stir the soul and awaken memories even for those too young to remember. Heym Un Veg (Between Home and The Way) takes listeners on theatrical journey to life in Ukraine, with a focus on Ukrainian Jewish community. Through storytelling, the performance threads cultures and generations, weaving together Lopatnik’s rich repertoire of Yiddish folk songs, her original compositions, and the poetry of prominent Ukrainian Yiddish poets. In this performance, Lopatnik will be joined by Oren Neiman (guitar) and Ivan Barenboim (clarinet).

Heym Un Veg (Between Home and The Way) is part of Crossing Borders Revisited, an exhibition that examines the way in which artists are keeping their family legacy relevant as they continue to make their own way in a contemporary time and place.

Doors open at 7:30pm

Showtime 8pm
