Description
An intimate concert series, the Rising Song Salon welcomes musical artists whose work sits at the intersection of Jewish wisdom, history, and storytelling into Hadar’s beit midrash for an exploration of song, source material, and creative process. In conversation with Hadar’s R. Deborah Sacks Mintz, each artist will share songs from the heart, inviting the audience into their music’s story in a unique Q and A-based gathering of music and learning. Come ready to listen, sing, and ask questions!
Ahavat Hadassah with Anat Halevy Hochberg
Ahavat Hadasssah explores original arrangements of traditional Yemeni Jewish song. Drawing from both the sacred men’s singing tradition rooted in piyyut and women’s folk songs, Anat Halevy Hochberg brings forward a wide range of Yemenite Jewish musical life—prayer, poetry, and everyday song. With a voice of striking clarity, Anat sings with directness and care, allowing the weight and beauty of the repertoire to speak. Ahavath Hadassah will be released on all platforms in late 2026.
Anat Halevy Hochberg is a musician, teacher, and ritual leader based in Boston. Her passions include leading song, empowering others to raise their voices, and working to reclaim the Yemeni melodies of her heritage. She has taught and led ritual at Let My People Sing!, Eden Village Camp, Hadar’s Rising Song Intensive, and Linke Fligl. She co-produced Tishrei: the end is the beginning and Elul: Songs for Turning, and her debut album How can I keep (from) singing? was released in 2020. Her upcoming album of Yemeni Jewish song, Ahavat Hadassah, will be released late 2026. Learn more about her work at anathalevyhochberg.com
