A Jewish Songs Concert

 
Saturday, October 14, 2023  02:00pm  03:15pm
   

     

On Saturday, October 14, starting at 2 pm, the Westchester Community for Humanistic Judaism will present "Another Taste of the Mame-Loshn — From the Old Country to the New World," a solo concert by Nina K. Gordon.

Nina Gordon made her professional performing debut at age 12, accompanying herself on guitar and singing folk songs by Woody Guthrie & Pete Seeger at the 1965 World’s Fair in New York. She continued singing in high school, college and beyond, appearing at coffeehouses and clubs in the N.Y.C. and L.I. area throughout the 1970s.

With a diverse repertoire of popular hits and hidden gems from the past half-century of recorded music, Nina has delighted audiences of all ages, from infants to centenarians, in venues throughout the tri-state area for over 40 years. She performs regularly as a solo artist as well as with her country-western band, Savannah Sky, and her retro-pop band, The Nina Gordon Party and she is a regular performer at senior living communities throughout New York and Long Island.

Accompanying herself on guitar, Nina covers music from genres as varied as calypso, folk, jazz, blues, and rock. Her repertoire includes folksongs, popular standards, country songs, and Yiddish and Hebrew favorites. These programs range from focus on a specific songwriter, to topical themes such as protest songs or women's image in music.
