Setting the Yiddish poetry of the revered Civil Rights activist and Jewish philosopher Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel to music, Basya Schechter has created with Songs of Wonder a rich new collection of Yiddish songs – colorful arrangements featuring many of the downtown Jewish scene's greatest musicians. This exciting project blends the soulful grooves and lush instrumentation of Pharaoh's Daughter (one of Schechter's other bands) with Schechter's lovely voice and Heschel's powerful poetry. After years of live gigs and months in the studio, this exciting music is finally available on the Tzadik label. It's an instant classic!
