TORONTO: SAM BROVERMAN: A JEWISH BOY'S CHRISTMAS
White Christmas. Let it Snow. Baby It's Cold Outside. Rudolf the Red-nosed Reindeer. What do these popular Christmas songs have in common (aside from driving you crazy while you do your Christmas shopping)? Some of the most popular Christmas songs of all time (5 of the top 10, according to ASCAP) were written by Jewish songwriters like Irving Berlin, Sammy Cahn, Jule Styne, Frank Loesser, and Johnny Marks. This holiday season, Toronto jazz singer Sam Broverman will again explore and celebrate what it means to be a "Jewish boy" at Christmas time (last year's show was sold out) at THE JAZZ BISTRO (251 Victoria Street, Toronto, ONT, CA - 416-363-5299) on Sunday, December 14th at 7:00 pm. In A Jewish Boy's Christmas, Sam recalls his own experiences as a Jewish boy in the very ethnically mixed north end of Winnipeg, and ties them to the Jewish influence on the Great American Christmas songbook in stories and songs, with a few surprises. With Jordan O'Connor on bass, Peter Hill on piano, and guest singer Whitney Ross-Barris (of whom Sam will ask the musical question Can I Interest You In Hannukah? (be there to hear her answer), plus a special appearance by members of the Toronto Mendelssohn Choir. A Jewish Boy's Christmas promises to be a hilarious and touching holiday night out whether you celebrate Christmas or Hannukah ... or none of the above! There is a $15 cover.
