dc.description.abstract	Sunday, September 15 at 3pm Deane Carriage Barn. From at least the 16th century up to the present, Hebrew devotional poetry (piyyutim) set to Ottoman/Turkish makam music for use in the synagogue has shown the close relationship Jews established with members of Sufi Muslim mystical communities in Ottoman regions. This program will highlight interfaith musical and cultural dialogue, showing how religious communities can—in our days, too—communicate and enrich each other. The acclaimed DÜNYA Ensemble of Boston will perform an exciting program highlighting interfaith musical and cultural dialogue between Jews and Sufi Muslims during the Ottoman Era in what is now modern Turkey. Featured guests include Joseph Alpar, visiting music faculty at Bennington College, Dr. Edwin Seroussi, professor of musicology at Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and a mixed chorus of singers from the Bennington College and Williams College communities together with the choir of Israel Congregation of Manchester.	en_US
