Holiday Broadcast Of Award-Winning Public Television Program Of Jewish Music To Air On PBS Stations, Reports Forest Creatures Entertainment

Award-Winning Kitka and Davka in Concert: Old and New World Jewish Music to be Broadcast on PBS stations

Kitka & Davka in Concert: Old and New World Jewish Music, an award-winning and internationally acclaimed public television special, brings thirteen exceptional musicians and vocalists to the screen in a spectacular performance recorded live at Oakland, California's Temple Sinai. It will be broadcast on PBS stations this holiday season.

Leonard Merrill Kurz, producer of Kitka & Davka in Concert: Old and New World Jewish Music, stresses the relevance of this program for people of all religions and cultures. "Culture and music can transcend the boundaries between religions. That's something that we really need for coexistence," he states.

For broadcast dates and times, please contact your local public television station or check the newspaper television listings.

Kitka & Davka in Concert: Old and New World Jewish Music has been honored at festivals throughout the world, including the New Beijing International Movie Festival.

Kitka & Davka in Concert: Old and New World Jewish Music has been awarded the prestigious Award of Excellence from the Accolade Competition. "It's a joy to hear the beauty and feel the cultural richness of Kitka & Davka in Concert, an attractively composed presentation of old and new Jewish music. While the production is obviously lifted by the power and depth of the music, it's the skill of the filmmaker and production team that brings the experience to life. Most concerts on film are boring - Kitka & Davka succeeds as entertainment. That's a high compliment." - Thomas Baker, Ph.D., Chairperson, The Accolade

Kitka & Davka in Concert: Old and New World Jewish Music was produced by Forest Creatures Entertainment in association with KEET, KTOP, Searchlight Educational Media and the Jewish Music Festival of the JCC of the East Bay.
