We hosted Teiku in 2019, and it is Joel's favorite of all our concerts. We are so excited to have them back!
Chicago pianist Josh Harlow and Detroit percussionist Jonathan Barahal founded Teiku around the concept of using their respective families’ unique Passover melodies as conduits for new forms of spontaneous musical expression. They are joined by two stellar musicians, Jaribu Shahid (upright bass) and Jason Stein (bass clarinet).
The result is powerful--think John Coltrane's "A Love Supreme" blended with Jewish music. They have been deepening and developing their music and their 2nd album, Klang, is coming out in June.
Suggested donation is $25 per person, which all goes to the musicians.
