Adult Learning at CBI!

Kaddish: Its Origins, Evolution, and Music

Last Class this Monday April 10! // 9:30 a.m. // Zoom

Kaddish is the most frequently recited prayer in all of Jewish liturgy
punctuating every service, up to 13 times daily! Yet it is the prayer most
closely associated with death and mourning. Join Len Hausman as we take a
deep dive into the origins of this heartfelt prayer dating to the early
first millennium when it was a mainly said in the study hall. We will then
move on to an exploration of how Kaddish became a prayer for mourners, which
was a relatively late innovation - not becoming fully standard until the
16th century. In the final two of our six sessions we will learn about the
music of Kaddish, both in its traditional liturgical functions, and as focus
of musical settings from the Renaissance to the 21st century.

CBI Alliance for Sustainability

In response to the increasing challenges facing the environment, it's time
for CBI to do its part to preserve and protect the natural world. We'll be
focusing on environmental sustainability through a Jewish lens, exploring
how essential Jewish teachings can inform our pursuit of a healthy and just
world. We hope to involve all members of the CBI community from preschoolers
to seniors. We'll be evaluating what we can do as a community and as
individuals to integrate a commitment to sustainability into our lives, in
order to be true partners in the ongoing work of Tikkun Olam. We invite you
to be part of it!
