Hassidic Singer
Captivates
Audience
By BETTY CANTOR
Enjoying his audience, “Let
us, dear friends, be seriously sad
and seriously happy.” Shlomo
Carlebach sang with all his heart
and soul and might to a capa
city crowd at the Community
Center, Sunday, March 26.
Though schooled for the rab
binate, the singer has a firm
grasp of the theatrical. Standing
before the mauve curtains, spot
lighted in various colors to suit
the mood of his selection, the
bearded singer was clad in white
shirt, dark trousers and a blue
velvet yarmulke. A large bronze
menorah with tall blue tapers
flickered nearby. With eyes
closed, body swaying, voice un
dulating and plaintive, he pre
sented a dramaic picture.
Despite the many requests
from the audience, most of the
program consisted of works of
his own He explained in a soul
ful voice with rabbinic ring that
one of the greatest acts of piety
is sharing. When he sings his
own compositions, he in essence
is sharing his innermost soul
with the listeners. And this the
audience felt, for they responded
from the first strum of the gui
tar. They sang, clapped, stamped
their feet, and joined in a swell
ing chorus which could not re
frain even when asked, “Let me
sing a few lines alone, first.”
The rabbi’s voice is stirringly
beautiful and in all his rendi
tions the deep warmth and
spontaneity of the man comes
through. Indeed it was this af
fection and genuine friendliness
that kept the audience waiting
some thirty minutes at the on
set. He was compelled to greet
extendedly everyone he en-
countered from the motel,
through the lobby of the Center,
and into the auditorium.
The intermission stretched
endlessly, too. The virile, unaf
fected man, surrounded by his
admirers, was ready to give
himself over to really getting
acquainted with each of them.
He had to be urged back to sing.
Music is his very life, but so is
his love of people. “I is the most
overused word in our language,”
he said. "Rather we should think
in terms of ‘you’.” This he was
demonstrating.
As the program progressed he
was drawn even closer to the
audience. He walked among
them. He danced in the center
aisle. A group of young people
danced the hora, which became
electrifying in tempo and mood,
as he joined with them, singing
and dancing.
In the afternoon he had sung
a program for teenagers and
held them captivated. There is a
joyous quality about the man
and his song that stirs and moves
the listener, even the young who
are so determined to appear
sophisticated. They bqttadCMp 1
to come into the toeaASb EMM*
and sing with them some more.
