Chicago Soprano Michelle Areyzaga and collaborative pianist Dana Brown are thrilled to present their new album, Were I With Thee, featuring words penned by women and set by American composers, inspired by the Emily Dickinson poem, “Were I With Thee.” With a fusion of influences, this project and its performers present a unique American vision of women’s words set to song.

A light dinner will be served to those attending the Kabbalat Shabbat service prior to each concert.
