BOMBYX Center for Arts & Equity (130 Pine Street, Florence MA)

Art + Entertainment + Music + Music/Instruments

Magevet, one of the nation's oldest premiere all gender Jewish college a capella groups, strives to stretch the boundaries of what people think of as Jewish music, demonstrating the breadth and wealth of the Jewish musical tradition. Drawing from time-honored melodies as well as original arrangements, they perform a diverse repertoire that includes liturgical pieces, traditional Ladino and Yiddish melodies, contemporary Israeli pop songs, as well as selections from Jewish communities around the world. Magevet's repertoire spans multiple genres, languages, and time periods, engaging audiences in the rich, varied history of the Jewish people through song. Finding new expression for familiar Jewish themes and anchoring diverse music in a common tradition, the sound of Magevet is undeniably exciting, unique, and memorable. Magevet is known for its sweet blend of voices, unique arrangements, and lighthearted sense of humor. We are thrilled to welcome them back for the second year in a row for an uplifting community evening of song and delight.

All ages and all backgrounds welcome.
