Live from... Where?, WPKN radio's monthly live concert broadcast series presents The Afro-Semitic Experience
Live in Studio 207 at the University Of Bridgeport Student Center
Wednesday, December 21, 2005, 8 PM sharp!
Presented before a studio audience and broadcast live on the air.
Everyone is invited to attend. We ask for a goodwill donation in any amount, and no one will be turned away unless the house is full. We request that reservations be made in advance by calling WPKN during regular business hours at 203 331 9756. Only 30 seats are available for the show, so it is essential to make reservations early.
The Afro-Semitic Experience is a cross-cultural band that delivers a positive and meaningful musical message about Black-Jewish relations. The Afro-Semitic Experience is an ensemble dedicated to preserving, promoting and expanding the rich cultural and musical heritage of the Jewish and African diaspora. Imagine a band that understands and can present interpretations of music from traditions as rich as Gospel, Klezmer, Nigunim, Spirituals, and Swing and you have the Afro-Semitic Experience. This is a group that is as comfortable playing a freylakh as they are swinging a blues, that knows how to play either a bulgar or some funk. Multi-cultural soul. Says band leader David Chevan, "Through our concerts, recordings and workshops, we are actively creating an artistic response to anti-Semitism and racism of all forms. This is our ongoing mission and it is of central importance to us."
