... a.k.a. your chance to catch [livejournal.com profile] chanaleh, [livejournal.com profile] ladypsyche, the illustrious Dr. [livejournal.com profile] mangosteen, and friends in all their a cappella glory! (You don't have to be Jewish to attend, or to enjoy the concert. In fact, as a special interfaith treat, we may do the fabled "Maoz Tzur"/"Deck the Halls" counterpoint demonstration. Not to be missed!)

Honorable Menschen In Concert
Sunday, December 18th, 2005
2:00-3:00pm
Harvard Hillel (52 Mount Auburn Street, Cambridge)
Cost: $5 (suggested donation)

Chanukah is late this year. Or is it just that Honorable Menschen, Boston's premier Jewish/Israeli/World a cappella group, is a whole week early? We love Chanukah so much that we just can't wait to start celebrating through song.

So, before you de-wax last year's menorah and dust off those dreidels, please join us for our annual Chanukah concert on Sunday, December 18th at 2:00pm, at Harvard Hillel. We will be debuting several songs, including "Eretz Tzvi" and "Erev Shel Shoshanim". Look out for a couple of traditional Chanukah songs and some of our old favorites, like "By the Rivers of Babylon" and "Mitachat".

This coming spring, we will start recording our first CD, so we appreciate all your support. Please bring along family and friends, or anyone else who wants to get into the Chanukah spirit! Don't forget to check out our newly updated website, http://www.honorablemenschen.org -- we've even got a demo medley for you to enjoy. Feel free to contact us at info@honorablemenschen.org for more information.

Looking forward to singing for you, and Happy (early) Chanukah!

Oh, dang. I wish I'd known about this yesterday, before scheduling a matinee Sunday.

Nonono, this is where you're supposed to emphasize how I won't miss a thing if I *buy the CD*. :-)

(Trivia: and while it is definitely the first Honorable Menschen CD, there was a CD made way back when when it was an all-guy group with a different name. A very small run, though; not sure how many were made.)

Ah, but we haven't decided yet what will appear on the CD, so how could I make such a promise?? ;-)

As for the other: Someone else was telling me that recently, in fact. I can't remember who, now, but it was on the T.

I'm singing in my own concert (Vox #2) at the time. I look forward to the CD, though. :)

I wish I could make it! I'll be in Anapolis (sp?) this weekend though, so I'll miss it.

Wow, that should just fit into my schedule! I'm going to the 5:00 P. M. performance of Revels that day. This coincidence is just fantastic!

I can't make it on Sunday, but I will probably catch you at Havurah on the Hill. Looking forward to it!
