When the nights get colder and darker, we can warm them up together with dance! Join TBZ member Zach Mayer for an Electronic Jerusalem Ecstatic Dance Party! Electronic Jerusalem is Zach’s new project, incorporating the sounds and rhythms he collected while studying Middle Eastern classical music in Jerusalem into modern electronic dance music. It’s pulsing; it’s ecstatic dance/trance. Imagine a shuk…of music! Performed live with synthesizer and saxophone.
