Songs from the Beit Midrash
Live in Your Community!
Songs from the Beit Midrash is a new collection of music designed for communal uplift, spiritual sustenance, and reverent joy. Recorded live over 72 hours, Deborah and her artistic team transformed Hadar's beit midrash into a recording studio inspired by the sources, relationships, and spiritual depth uncovered within its walls. Combining lush strings, electric instrumentals, power harmonies, and the musicality of spontaneous communal song, this album’s sonic palate invites the listener into a soundscape of prayerful intention and artistic expression.
Deborah would love to bring a Songs from the Beit Midrash concert to your community! These gatherings bring the power, reverence, and intimacy of this album’s music into a shared space of prayerful harmony, bold artistic expression, and joyful communal song. With sold-out gatherings coast to coast, Deborah and her ensemble of world-renowned musicians gather, sing, and co-create this music anew with audiences of all walks of life. We’d love to join you!
