Adrienne Haan Will Perform in TEHORAH at Carnegie Hall in May

International chanteuse Adrienne Haan will appear in Tehorah ("pure" in Hebrew), a heartbreaking, promising musical journey about loss, hope and forgiveness on Wednesday, May 10 at 8:00pm at Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall. The evening, written, directed, and performed by Ms. Haan, will celebrate the 75th anniversary of the founding of the State of Israel and will be comprised of songs composed and written by Jewish composers and librettists sung in German, Yiddish and Hebrew.

Tehorah is an historical, poetic portrait that musically tells the story of the founding of Israel - from 1920's Weimar Berlin to the ghetto of Łódź all the way to the Promised Land.

Ms. Haan will be supported on stage by a string quartet led by her Musical Director Udi Gershuni on piano, with Leerone Hakami (violin), Maya Lorenzen (violin), Oryann Tsaig (viola) and Tamar Sagiv (cello).

Tehorah was originally performed at Weill Recital Hall in 2015.

"At a time when antisemitism is on the rise and anti-Zionism is running rampant, retelling the vibrant story of the Jewish peoples' recent history is a refreshing remedy to the poisonous falsehoods. As such, it is an honor to serve as a patron of Adrienne Haan's Tehorah at Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall, a performance dedicated to precisely that. As Israel's Ambassador to the United Nations, I spend every day showcasing the modern-day miracle that is the Jewish state - a country built on the ashes of the Holocaust, which now serves as a beacon of liberal democracy in a sea of darkness. Similar to Israel, Tehorah tells the same Jewish story; the story of rising like a phoenix from a past of tragedy and loss, to a future of hope and peace. In dark times like these, this story is in dire need of telling." - Ambassador Gilad Erdan, Permanent Representative of Israel to the United Nations.

Tickets are priced at $65 and $75 and my obtained online here and in person at the Carnegie Hall box office, located at 57th Street and Seventh Avenue.
