Peace Among the Nations: Abraham in Judaism,
Christianity & Islam
with
Rabbi Shoshana Dworsky, Carleton College
Father Michael O'Connell, Basilica of Saint Mary
Imam Makram N. El-Amin, Masjid An-Nur
Tom Crann, Minnesota Public Radio

Through music from the ancient world and interfaith
discussion, we will together explore the tale of
Abraham - known as "Blessed Father," "Father in Faith"
and "Imam to the Nations" - the spiritual ancestor
whose story reveals a shared heritage. Featuring a
variety of traditional Arabic and period European
instruments, the program includes Jewish
para-liturgical music from Morocco, Turkey and Libya;
Arabic chant from the Maronite tradition; Gregorian &
Latin chants; Renaissance motets; nomadic dances from
the Bedouin community of Southern Sinai; and Hebrew
chant from the Florentine Sephardic community. Please
join us for a reception following each performance.
