Concert Series 2022-2023
“We don't think a concert series of this depth, variety, and scale exists in any other synagogue in Los Angeles,” says Cantor Jacqueline Rafii.
“Our goal at VBS is to be at the forefront of musical and cultural innovation. We want to be pioneers in this space -- going beyond the traditional understanding of what it means to present music in the synagogue. We aim to present music from a hugely diverse and broad array of genres and artists; always maintaining a connection to Judaism and the Jewish people, and always offering a new expression of what that means. Come celebrate this exciting, new and uncharted musical landscape that we are building here at VBS and ONLY at VBS.”
