Title: Dayenu--Diana--Michael S. McCown, soloist
Review: A Taste of Passover provides a wonderful look at Jewish beliefs and music, and it gave me a new insight into a group of people and a religion that have fascinated me for years.Theodore Bikel's telling of "The Carp in the Bathtub" was touching, and the Matzoh Ball Demonstration by Chasia Segal was charming. Hankus Netsky and the Klezmer Conservatory Band played music with which I was unfamiliar and made me feel as though I were listening to pieces that I had known all my life and which had become my favorites.But the highlight was hearing Michael McCown sing "Dayenu" to the tune of Paul Anka's "Diana." He sings it with such energy and delight that it became an interactive experience for the audience, and they seemed to enjoy listening to the song as much as he enjoyed performing it.
