CELEBRATING JEWISH CULTURE & COMMUNITY
A Spiritual Journey of Soulful Music – April 3
Songstress Neshama Carlebach to Appear in Wynnewood with
the Green Pastures Baptist Church Choir
Neshama Carlebach takes center stage at
Temple Beth Hillel – Beth El in Wynnewood
on April 3, with the Green Pastures Baptist
Church Choir.
W hen charismatic songstress Neshama
Carlebach takes center stage at Temple
Beth Hillel – Beth El in Wynnewood on April
3, with the Green Pastures Baptist Church
Choir from the Bronx, it will be an electrify-
ing and unforgettable night.
So how does a nice Jewish girl and Baptist
choir come to perform together? The collab-
oration had its roots several years ago when
the choir and its dynamic leader, The Rev.
Roger Hambrick, performed at a Martin
Luther King Day observance at Neshama’s
synagogue. Neshama discovered that her
father’s song “Brothers and Friends” was
regularly sung by Rev. Hambrick’s congre-
gation. The rest, as they say, is history.
Neshama’s father is the late Rabbi Shlomo
Carlebach. He has been described as the most
significant Jewish recording artist of the past
half-century and the father of Modern Jew-
ish Music. According to Neshama, who has
enjoyed her own successful musical career
for years, her father, “embraced people of all
religions and all backgrounds and invited
them in.” Rabbi Carlebach also collaborated
with a Baptist choir for his first recording
in 1958.
Neshama is proudly carrying on her father’s
legacy. And she has gone further—bringing
her father’s music to diverse cultures and
her own generation.
The “Unity Tour’s” message is one of uni-
fication. Their hope is to bring communities
together with song. These unique perform-
Jewish Mindfulness Program in Roxborough Offers
Guide to Ancient Practice of “Counting the Omer”
F or an increasing number of modern Jews,
Passover marks not only a remembrance
of liberation from slavery, but also the be-
ginning of a 49-day journey toward revelation:
the “Counting of the Omer,” an invitation to
explore Jewish Mindfulness.
“A Way In,” the Jewish Mindfulness program
at Mishkan Shalom synagogue in Roxborough,
has created several aids to exploring this
ancient practice, including a special full-color
spiral-bound guide to Counting the Omer fill-
ed with Psalm verses and suggested Mind-
fulness practices geared to each day. In ad-
dition, during the Omer, which falls between
April 19 and June 7 this year, the “A Way
In” Web site – http://mishkan.org/a-way-in –
will post daily teachings and blessings. Par-
ticipants will also have the opportunity to
share their experiences through a blog.
A relatively new development in Judaism,
Jewish Mindfulness combines meditation
and movement with Jewish story and sym-
bol to help cultivate “moment-to-moment
awareness.”
“Journey through the Wilderness: A Guide
to Counting the Omer,” is written by Rabbi
Yael Levy, based on her decades-long spiri-
tual practice. The guides can be pre-ordered
and will begin shipping immediately after
CITY SUBURBAN NEWS Page 9
ers have described themselves as “voices
of peace and unity in a troubled world.” The
concert promises to be unlike anything the
audience has experienced before—combin-
ing Neshama’s (her name means “soul”)
sensual and skillful voice (which has been
compared to Sheryl Crow and Linda Ronstadt)
with the energetic and soulful talents of the
choir. The room will fill with Hebrew and
English songs and music blending pop, jazz
and the traditional Jewish melodies of her
father.
The 37 year-old Neshama lists among her
greatest inspirations, Billie Holiday, Ella Fitz-
gerald, Joni Mitchell and, of course, Rabbi
Carlebach. She and the choir are backed
by her band, consisting of piano, bass, drums
and guitar. She has said that her band “takes
the most incredible music and gives it the
most unbelievable sounds. It is not a pre-
dictable show. When the Reverend sings in
Hebrew it is very cool.”
There is an enormous and obvious inten-
sity that fills the performers and the audience
at a “Unity Tour” concert. It is often trans-
formative and transporting. It is always ex-
citing and emotional.
Just five months ago, Neshama’s 7th CD,
“Higher and Higher,” created in collaboration
with Rev. Hambrick and the choir, was released.
It has been widely praised.The CD has been
described as a recording that is “…perfect
for the times. One that embraces spirit, vital-
ity and values, without being tied to any
particular denomination. It is a record of hope.
It will appeal to her legion of devoted fans
and gain her a diverse new audience.”
Even though her lyrics include some Jew-
ish prayers, Carlebach does not consider
her music “necessarily religious. But I defi-
nitely would say it is spiritual. It speaks to
the soul. …It is about connecting with some-
thing that is meaningful and precious in your
life and feeling something.”
Of a recent concert performance Neshama
writes, “Hundreds of people from all differ-
ent backgrounds came together, sang, cried
and danced. Once again I witnessed the utter
magic of my father’s music. It is an infinite
privilege to sing in his name and see the good
he is still accomplishing in this world.”

In Biblical times, the counting of the Omer
was an agricultural ritual during which
farmers waved a sheaf of barley (an omer)
toward the heavens to pray for a good har-
vest. The Jewish mystics of the 16th and
17th centuries assigned a quality to each of
the 49 days. In modern times, counters have
used these designations as starting points
for meditation and reflection.
Rabbi Levy will teach two preparatory
classes on Counting the Omer on Wednes-
days April 6 and 13 from 6:15 to 8 p.m. at
Mishkan Shalom, 4101 Freeland Avenue in
Roxborough. Cost is $24 for Mishkan Shalom
members and $36 for non-members.
In addition, a 27-hour Mindfulness Shabbat
on retreat is planned for Elkins Estate in
Elkins Park on April 29 - 30. It will include
a contemplative celebration of Shabbat as
well as a day of walking and sitting medita-
tion. For information, or to order an Omer

T he phone call came on June
6, 2010, as Austin Bury
’11 was on his way home from
Canada, where he had been
racing as a member of Malvern
Prep Crew. The call was from
his dad, Tim, who delivered
the news that Austin’s cousin,
26-year-old Marine Sgt. Brandon
Bury, had been killed while

supporting combat operations in Afghanistan. The news weighed heavy on

Austin’s heart as he endured that long trip home.
Brandon Bury had already served two tours in Iraq before he was deployed to
Afghanistan in April 2010. He had most recently been assigned to train Afghan
police officers, and spoke to family and friends about making progress with the
local population. “He had a light about him when he walked into a room, and
everyone was always drawn to him,” said his wife Heather, mother of Brandon’s
4- and 2-year-old sons. “He was the kind of man who wanted to help everyone.”
Rowing provided comfort for Austin, who greatly loved, admired and respect-
ed his cousin. He focused his energies on the US Rowing Youth National Cham-
pionship in Cincinnati, and the US Rowing Junior Men’s National Team Selection
Camp, but his commitment to crew meant he was unable to join his family in
attendance at both Brandon’s funeral in California and memorial service in
Houston. Brandon was in his thoughts last season, and this year the loved one
he lost will be with him throughout the racing season.
