Established in 2022, the VBS Annual Concert Series was developed by Cantor Jacqueline Rafii to bring VBS to the forefront of musical and cultural innovation. The VBS Annual Concert Series transcends the traditional understanding of musical presentation in the synagogue. From a hugely diverse and broad array of genres and artists, we offer a new expression of musical connection to Judaism and the Jewish people.
