Inspired by Jewish values and ideals, and spurred by the worsening COVID crisis, TBE’s Cantor Elizabeth Sternlieb is collaborating with an exciting cast of fellow cantors and notable Jewish singer-songwriters across the country to present a virtual benefit concert on Sunday, December 13, the fourth night of Chanukah.

Admission to the concert will be by ticket only, and funds raised will benefit MAZON, the national advocacy organization working to end hunger among people of all faiths and backgrounds in the US and Israel. The program will feature original music composed by the cantors and singer-songwriters. As a conclusion, the Chanukah blessings will be sung by the virtual ensemble in a moving, nationwide candle-lighting ceremony. There will be three levels of ticket pricing, ranging from $18 to $1800. Donors at the higher end of the scale will receive a link for a “backstage pass,” admittance to a virtual interactive round table discussion with the artists.
