An Inspirational evening of sacred Sufi Music from the Turkish and Pakistani traditions and devotional music from the Moroccan-Jewish and Christian-Armenian Church heritages. The event will be headlined by The Yuval Ron Ensemble featuring vocal soloist Najwa Gibran and an apperance by Whirling Dervish of the Melevi Order, Aziz.

Formed in 1999, The Yuval Ron Ensemble endeavors to alleviate national, racial, religious and cultural divides by uniting the music and dance of the opposing people of the Middle East into a unique mystical, spiritual and inspiring musical celebration. The Ensemble includes Jewish and Arabic musicians as well as Christian Armenian artists who have been actively involved in creating musical bridges between people of various faiths and ethnic groups worldwide. Led by Oscar winning composer Yuval Ron (music for ?West Bank Story?) the Ensemble has enjoyed overwhelming community support and was chosen to be featured in PBS ?Holiday Celebration? TV specials in 2005 and 2006 and was honored with the Los Angeles Treasures Award in 2004.

In 2002 and 2005, the ensemble was featured at the World Festival of Sacred Music in Los Angeles and was honored to be the first American-based Middle Eastern Ensemble to perform at an International Peace Festival ?05 in South Korea. In addition, the Ensemble was chosen by the Mid-Atlantic Foundation and the National Endowment for the Arts to represent the United States and its cultural diversity at the International Folk Music Festival in Lublin, Poland in 2005. In 2006 the Ensemble was the first to introduce the music of the Middle East to Chihuahua, Mexico at the International Chihuahua Festival, and in 2007 it was featured in the International Oud Festival in Jerusalem, Israel.

In 2003, the Yuval Ron Ensemble released their first album ?Under The Olive Tree? on Magda Records. The album is an International favorite with world music lovers and has been featured on National Public Radio?s ?Echoes? and ?Hearts of Space? programs. The album was followed in 2005 with the much-awaited second album ?Tree Of Life,? also on Magda Records. The Yuval Ron Ensemble was in residencies at numerous schools such as John Hopkins University, UCLA, Brandeis University and Middlebury College and has performed numerous benefit concerts to support organizations that promote peace and help the disadvantaged.
