This year as every year, we invite you to join us in remembering the victims of and fighters against the Nazi destruction of European Jewry as we gather at the memorial plaza in Riverside Park at 3 PM on Wednesday, April 19th (not Tuesday as per my mistake in previous email), in honor of the 74th anniversary of the Warsaw ghetto uprising. This event is co-sponsored by the Congress for Jewish Culture, the Workmen's Circle, and the Jewish Labor Committee.

The Congress for Jewish Culture gratefully acknowledges the Bertha Foundation as well as private donors for their support of this and other programming; and the Riverside Park Fund for their help in arranging the event and maintaining the Warsaw Ghetto Memorial Plaza.

David Chevan, Hamden, CT, 19 Apr 2017

David Chevan, with Will Bartlett on sax, Jesse Chevan on drums and Warren Byrd on keyboards. What’s so special about this concert? Well, glad you asked, it will feature original compositions and arrangements by Will Bartlett, the unsung hero of so many of my projects over the past 20+ years. Will is a founding member of Bassology, the Afro-Semitic Experience and he has played in the Nu Haven Kapelye and many other one off projects. So, in my mind it’s about time we listen to some of his music played by some people who really know it. So, this one is going to be a rollicking evening of creative fun without a doubt.
